Daniel Diermeier (born July 16, 1965) is the University of Chicago’s Provost. He succeeded Eric Isaacs on July 1, 2016.[2] On December 4, 2019, Diermeier was announced as the ninth Chancellor of Vanderbilt University, beginning July 1, 2020.[3]

Career

Diermeier started his career as an assistant professor at the Graduate School of Business at Stanford University before joining the Department of Managerial Economics and Decision Sciences at Northwestern University's Kellogg School of Management where he was the named professor and established the political economy program and won multiple teaching awards including Professor of the Year Award in 2010, and Alumni Professor of the Year Award in 2013.[4]

From 2014 to 2016, Diermeier served as Dean of the Harris School of Public Policy as well as the Emmet Dedmon Professor at the Harris School and The College at The University of Chicago. Under his leadership the Harris School increased the number of students and faculty,[5] expanded key areas of scholarly research and led fundraising efforts for the renovation of the award-winning the Keller Center.[6]

Diermeier is a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences[7] and a research fellow at the Canadian Institute of Advanced Research (CIFAR).[8] In 2014, he was awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship in political science.[9]

Research

Diermeier has published four books and more than 100 research articles in academic journals, mostly in the fields of political science, economics and crisis management, but also in other areas ranging from linguistics, sociology and psychology to computer science, operations research and applied mathematics.[10]

Diermeier has contributed to the theory of legislative institutions, including the study of committees in the U.S. Congress, governing coalitions in multi-party democracies and the formation and stability of coalition governments.[11] He was one of the first political scientists to use structural estimation, e.g. in the study of political careers and coalitions, text analytical methods, and behavioral models in politics.[12] In addition to his work in political science Diermeier has worked on issues of corporation reputations and the interaction between firms and social activists.[13]
