About Us: Professionalism and Leadership
To strengthen our sense of purpose, our effectiveness, and our cohesiveness as one academic community, we have an established leadership team, including the Department Chairman, Vice Chairs, Associate Chairs, Division Chiefs, and Administrative Staff. Beyond these roles, we have several standing committees that are important in fulfilling critical functions of the Department.
Together, this executive and administrative infrastructure supports department-wide efforts to strengthen the leadership skills and aspirations of our early career faculty and staff, and to cultivate a culture that is supportive of professional growth and opportunities.
