Meet the Staff

Dr. Lisa Armistead was named as the inaugural dean for Georgia State University’s Graduate School in 2019 and has served as Georgia State University’s first Associate Provost for Graduate Programs since the office’s founding in July 2014.

Her office partners with graduate students, faculty, administrators and staff to identify and expand upon best practices for graduate and professional programs in more than 100 fields of studies across nine colleges, schools and institutes. Beyond collaborations with graduate programs in these units, Dr. Armistead’s team serves as the administrative home to initiatives for the university’s postdoctoral associates and fellows.
