What's New

• AWI is pleased to welcome new Executive Committee member - Dr. Laura Huenneke, Northern Arizona University's Vice President for Research Dr. Huenneke, who has served as founding dean of the NAU College of Engineering and Natural Sciences since 2004, will assume her new post after an interim dean is named for the college. Her appointment is contingent upon approval by the Arizona Board of Regents, which is expected in March. "Laura's background and accomplishments as a scientist and as an academic administrator have prepared her well for this position," said NAU President* John Haeger*. "Her knowledge of state initiatives in science, engineering, math and economic development readies her to advance the role of vice president for Research at NAU." Prior to joining NAU in 2003 as dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, Huenneke was chair of the Department of Biology at New Mexico State University, where she was named a Regents' Professor. "It's a tremendously exciting opportunity to help the university expand the scope and impact of its scholarship and research," Huenneke said. "I'm eager to see us use our research activity to reinforce our identity as one of the state's three research universities. The kind of scholarship and research we do really distinguishes us from our sister institutions."
