Dean's advisory board
Former Dean Christos Christodoulou started the Industry and Innovation Board in 2019 as an advisory board whose primary purpose was to assist the dean’s leadership team on all matters pertinent to the School’s vision in order to fulfill its mission. Dean Riley is currently in the process of reimagining the dean-level boards (Industry and Innovation, along with the Alumni Leadership Board), so stay tuned in the coming months for news on a revamped external relations board. Thank you for your continued support of the School of Engineering!
