Graduate School Dean search

The Office of the Provost has launched a search for the next Dean of the Graduate School/Vice Provost for Graduate and Professional Education.

The provost has appointed a search committee, made up of key stakeholders across the university. This includes representation from faculty, staff, and students from both east and west campuses. The list of search committee members is listed below.

The search for the next leader of graduate education at Stony Brook University will be conducted internally. This decision was reached following review of feedback from a survey sent to the community in November, seeking input on how to approach the search.
