Econtent and a recent member of the Board of Directors of CANARIE,

Professor Alice Mansell was the founding
Vice President, Academic of The Technical University of British Columbia
(TechBC) from 1998 to 2002, when it was merged with Simon Fraser
University.
During her tenure at TechBC, Professor Mansell
led the design, planning, approval and development of Bachelor of
Science, Masters of Applied Science and PhD programs in Interactive Arts
(digital arts and design), Information Technology (computer science and
engineering), and Management and Technology. This included:
- Design and implementation of organizational teams, structures,
policies and resources to realize effective delivery of programs
based on innovative pedagogical, online and interdisciplinary
principles.
- Planning and recruitment of highly qualified and committed
faculty, learning staff and learning support and learners, along
with professional development programs to enable faculty, learning
staff and managers to grow their expertise and effectiveness.
- Industry and community support through Program Advisory
Committees, public presentations, as well as participation on
industry, government, and community boards and projects.
While President of the Nova Scotia
College of Art and Design, Alice led organizational restructuring
projects, program reviews and curriculum revision coupled with
achievement of substantially increased enrolments. This was accomplished
while the college was forced to cope with a 25% reduction in provincial
funding and build a sustainable budget process. These efforts and
increased advocacy at Ministry and community levels resulted in the
college being able to resist being merged with a larger university (the
plans for the merger had been defined just prior to her appointment) and
the loss of its signature studio-based programs. At the same time she
was able to achieve the first significant funding from private sources
for a New Media center and program, and for new faculty positions.
During her tenure as Chair of the
Department of Visual Arts, at The University of Western Ontario,
Alice Mansell led the department from a small program in derelict
buildings threatened with closure to its current state. The Department
of Visual Arts continues to enjoy international status for its unique
graduate and undergraduate programs, its active faculty research
profile, its high student demand, and for its position as a nexus for
collaborations among other programs at the university and in community.
During two consecutive terms she led:
- the revision of the undergraduate program, including initiation
of more diverse curriculum content to include indigenous and North
American cultural and historical content.
- the creation and funding of a new type of graduate program that
capitalized on the intersections of studio, criticism and theory
practices.
- acquisition of a renewed and expanded faculty complement
- tripling of enrollment
- program collaborations with Faculty of Medicine, Engineering and
Business, Fanshawe College and Beale Sr. Secondary.
- establishment of Visual Arts Program Advisory Committee with
arts and business leaders from across Canada and from the U.S.
- funding and construction of the John Labatt Visual Arts Centre
designed by Ray Moriyama
As Assistant Dean of Fine Arts and a
member of Faculty in the Department of Art at the University of
Calgary, she developed faculty research mentoring and funding programs,
and interdisciplinary programs with Music, Dance, Theatre, English,
Gender Studies, and Visual Art.
Professor Mansell maintained a research
practice throughout which sought to explore the relation between
learning and experience design in electronic environments with an
international reputation as an artist in innovative, installation and
electronic media. She also lectured widely on the relations among
contemporary art theory, education, culture and technology.
She has built a reputation for building
innovative learning models, programs and facilities for the arts and
higher education across the country.
As an Artist Mansell has continually
built her active studio practice using painting, drawing, costume and
embroidery to explore and critique representations of gender, class, and
authority. She has also worked extensively with dance and theatre
artists to create costumes, sets, exhibitions and performances since
1980. She has exhibited in public and private galleries across Canada,
the US, the UK, Germany, Austria, China and Japan.
Professor Mansell was born in Alberta and
holds degrees from the University of Calgary and the University of
British Columbia, and program certificates from University of Manitoba,
the National Endowment for the Arts, and Harvard University.
