John Joughin has been acting vice-chancellor for the past six months following the departure of Patrick McGhee on health grounds.
Before that, Professor Joughin was deputy vice-chancellor, leading the university’s research strategy.
He has 20 years’ experience “as an accomplished academic and Shakespearean scholar”, the university said in a press release.
Professor McGhee left suddenly in January, but in May returned to Twitter, thanking well-wishers for their support.

Both UEL’s pro vice-chancellor, international, John Shaw, and pro vice-chancellor and director of finance, Nirmal Borkhataria, also left the institution between the end of December 2012 and the end of January 2013.
Commenting on Professor Joughin’s appointment, Mark Stephens, chair of UEL’s board of governors, said: “The board believe John has the optimal skill set to lead the university.
