Posted by Kimber Crull
Dr. David Borrok, an alumnus of Missouri S&T, has accepted the position of vice provost and dean of his alma mater’s College of Engineering and Computing effective Feb. 1.
Since August 2022, Borrok has served in this role in an interim capacity, but he is now set to begin the job on a permanent basis.
“I am delighted that David is moving into the dean position permanently,” says Dr. Colin Potts, provost and executive vice chancellor of academic affairs at S&T. “He is a strategic and responsible leader who has the confidence of the department chairs and faculty. He is not afraid to make challenging decisions and plan for the long-term future and has been of invaluable assistance in jumpstarting the Bio-X-related degree proposals.”
Borrok has previously served as the college’s associate dean for research. He was also chair of the geosciences and geological and petroleum engineering department at S&T and served as the Gulf Oil Foundation Professor.
