Lynn Wild came to RIT in February of 2002 as the Assistant Provost for Teaching and Learning Services, a newly created position.  Wild is responsible for overseeing and developing a comprehensive range of services dedicated to enhancing RIT's learning environment.

Wild's experience in higher education includes the development of two teaching and learning centers - one at Rutgers University and one at Buffalo State College.  Her 14 years of experience in faculty development is complemented by 10 years in director-level management positions in education and business environments.
"What attracted me to RIT is that it represents a good marriage of the theoretical with the applied," says Wild.  "At RIT, faculty work hard to keep up with cutting-edge technology and apply it in the classrooms so that students are the best they can be when they transition from the classroom to the working world."

Wild holds a doctorate in education from the University of Pittsburgh.  She earned her bachelor's degree in English education from Buffalo State College and her master's in educational communication at the State University of New York at Buffalo.  She currently teaches in RIT’s Center for Multidisciplinary Studies and has more than ten years experience teaching people ranging in age from 12 to 70 in secondary, university and corporate settings.
