Ed Schlesinger<\/a>, who has served as dean of the Whiting School of Engineering<\/a> since 2014, has been appointed to a third term as the school\u2019s Benjamin T. Rome dean, through June 30, 2028.<\/p>\n

In an announcement to the Johns Hopkins community, President Ronald J. Daniels<\/a> and then Interim Provost Stephen Gange<\/a> lauded Schlesinger, saying, \u201cFor nearly a decade under Ed\u2019s leadership, the Whiting School of Engineering has made tremendous progress in advancing institutional goals and elevating the school\u2019s impact both locally and around the globe.\u201d<\/p>\n

By just about every quantifiable measure, the school has made monumental strides during Schlesinger\u2019s tenure. These achievements include doubling the Whiting School\u2019s annual research funding and endowment, growing the faculty by national rankings, and building new partnerships across Johns Hopkins and with peer institutions and industry, as well as launching major new cross-divisional research institutes focused on areas including AI and renewable energy.<\/p>\n

Schlesinger also played a leading role in the university\u2019s efforts to reimagine the undergraduate experience and curriculum, serving as the co-chair of the Second Commission on Undergraduate Education, or CUE2.<\/p>\n

\u201cGiven the strong momentum at the Whiting School and exciting new opportunities that lie ahead, we are confident that Ed is the right person to continue to lead the school for years to come,\u201d Daniels and Gange wrote.<\/p>\n\"A<\/a>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
