The University of Toronto Scarborough (UTSC), one of the three campuses of the University of Toronto, has had 12 principals since it was established in 1964 as Scarborough College. The current officeholder is Linda Johnston, who has served as the vice-president and principal since January 1, 2024.

Abbreviated as "VP-principal" or "VPP", the vice-president/principal is the executive head of the Scarborough campus. The VP-principal is also an ex-officio member of the UTSC Campus Council, an arm of the University of Toronto Governing Council.

Since 2002, the principal of the Scarborough campus has had a dual role as a vice-president of the University of Toronto, following a reorganization of the campus's administrative structure in anticipation of student enrolment growth in the early 2000s. The vice-president reports directly to the president of the University of Toronto.

The first UTSC principal was David Carlton Williams, a professor of psychology at the University of Toronto who, in 1964, was tasked with leading the establishment of both the university's Erindale and Scarborough campuses.
