New chancellor announced for NC A&T. Here’s who will lead the country’s largest HBCU.
June 21, 2024
James Martin II will be the 13th chancellor of North Carolina A&T State University.
James Martin, an engineer with more than 30 years of experience in higher education, will be the 13th chancellor of North Carolina A&T State University — a job in which he will lead the country’s largest historically Black university.
Martin will join A&T from his current role as vice chancellor for STEM research and innovation at the University of Pittsburgh, where he was previously dean of the university’s engineering school. With a research background in risk engineering and earthquake science, he began his career as a professor at Virginia Tech before becoming an engineering department chair at Clemson University.
He will begin his new role Aug. 15. The UNC System Board of Governors named Martin for the role in a special meeting Friday, approving system President Peter Hans’ nomination. The search process to find the university’s next leader began last fall, after Chancellor Harold Martin — the longest-serving current chancellor in the 17-campus UNC System — announced he would retire at the end of the academic year.
James Martin will take the helm from Harold Martin — no relation — at a time of consistent, record growth for A&T. The Greensboro university is one of the fastest-growing in the country, and for 10 consecutive years has been the nation’s largest HBCU by enrollment. Its enrollment in each of the past three academic years, including a total enrollment last fall of more than 13,800 students, has made it the largest-ever HBCU
