I am grateful for this opportunity to serve as the interim dean at SEAS. I was fortunate to have been a part of the marvelous transformation of engineering and applied sciences at Harvard over the past three decades.
The open, collaborative, and interdisciplinary spirit that guided the activities at Rowland, my former assignment, is the very philosophy that has made SEAS such a unique place among engineering schools.
I look forward to working even more closely with my colleagues to continue this tradition and to build on Dean Narayanamurti’s many accomplishments of the recent years.
