A graduate of Miami University of Ohio, where he earned both a master’s degree and a doctorate in psychology, Nowaczyk began his career as a professor in the department of psychology at Clemson University, where he held a succession of faculty positions through 1998.
He has continued to teach throughout his administrative career, which includes a stint as provost and vice president for academic affairs at Clarion University, in Pennsylvania, and another as dean of the College of Arts and Sciences at the University of New Haven.
