After seven years as president of West Hartford’s St. Joseph University, Pamela Trotman Reid will retire at the end of the 2014-2015 academic year, the school announced.

Hired in early 2008, Trotman Reid oversaw the former St. Joseph College’s upgrade to university accreditation and the expansion of its offerings, including a doctoral pharmacy programs in downtown Hartford. The pharmacy school graduated its first class of 57 students earlier this year.

She has also sought to increase the school’s global presence by forging ties with colleges in Israel and Japan and recruiting students from West Africa and the Middle East.

“President Pamela Trotman Reid has transformed the University of Saint Joseph with her vision, energy and dedication to higher education,” E. Clayton “Skip” Gengras Jr., chairman of the school’s trustees, said in a statement.

Trotman Reid said she wants to develop her other interests and spend more time with her family, which is spread out across the country.

USJ said it has formed a committee to conduct a nationwide search for a replacement.
