Upcoming Campus Visits for Finalists for Dean of COEIT

Tue, 16 May 2017 13:17:00 -0400

I am writing to update you on the progress of UMBC’s search for the Dean of the College of Engineering and Information Technology and to thank you for the valuable input we have received so far.

After a round of interviews, the search committee has narrowed the candidates to four finalists. Each of those finalists will visit the campus over the next few days. As a part of each visit, the search committee will host a candidate forum open to all members of the community. The forums will be held on the following dates and times:

Tuesday, May 16, 12 - 1 p.m., 7th Floor Lobby

Wednesday, May 17, 12 - 1 p.m., AD 101 Lecture Hall 3

Thursday, May 18, 12 - 1 p.m., 7th Floor Lobby

Monday, May 22, 12 - 1 p.m., 7th Floor Lobby

The search committee will provide opportunities for input after each forum. The committee hopes that you will meet with each of the candidates, ask questions, and share your feedback, which the search committee will use in making its final recommendations for the position.

Each candidate’s curriculum vitae will be made available on the Dean search website in advance of each visit. A link to provide feedback on each candidate will be available on the website immediately following the visit. All comments submitted before the close of businessMonday, May 22 will be shared with the search committee and included in discussion regarding candidate evaluation.

We greatly value your input and appreciate your support in making this important appointment for UMBC.

Mark Marten, Search Committee Chair and Professor and Interim Chair, Chemical, Biochemical, and Environmental Engineering
