DEAN, COLLEGE OF SCIENCE

LONG ISLAND UNIVERSITY

BROOKLYN & BROOKVILLE, NY

THE SEARCH

Long Island University (LIU) is undergoing significant transformation towards becoming a nationally recognized, globally engaged research and education enterprise. LIU is searching for an inspirational leader to serve as Dean of the College of Science (COS) across the Post and Brooklyn Campuses to provide leadership to achieve the bold ONE LIU vision and connect the College of Science to LIU’s five research priorities including: One Health, Innovative Cures, Data Analytics/AI, Resilient Communities and the Future of Business.

COS is committed to preparing students to be the next leaders in science and related fields by providing an innovative education and research experience. With two physical locations in Brooklyn and Brookville, NY, LIU COS is critical to a core liberal arts curriculum and overall educational and economic development goals from Brooklyn to Long Island, in what is fast becoming a digitally-driven job market.

COS will play a seminal role in the growth of the LIU research enterprise, which achieved R2 status in 2022, and is poised to support LIU’s goal of reaching R1 status by 2030. LIU has already entered into a major partnership with Dassault Systems and the 3DS Platform to usher in a new digital research and education modality for its students and faculty. This new partnership will propel several exciting new initiatives as well as emerging opportunities in social sciences and psychology spurred by what has been labeled the 4th Industrial Revolution.

The Dean will have primary responsibility for education, research, administration, student affairs, budget, and external relations with the College’s constituencies. The Dean’s primary responsibilities will include:

Developing and building new, integrated research, education, and innovation platforms.

Bringing new students to the LIU ecosystem across the college.

Recruiting research faculty while stimulating research-based global partnerships.

Increasing research funding and enrollment through domestic and international partnerships.

Working on fundraising, development, assessment, and improvement of all academic programs.

The successful candidate will be an inspirational leader who possesses demonstrated leadership in education, research, or practice, and substantial administrative experience, strong scholarly visibility within the academic community, and the capacity to exercise intellectual leadership at the local, state, national, and international levels. The successful candidate will enable and inspire faculty, staff, and students toward achievement of the College’s mission and goals. The target salary for this role is $350,000-400,000 and will be commensurate with experience.
