DePauw University has launched a formal national search for the inaugural dean of its School of Business and Leadership, and has hired executive search firm WittKieffer to lead the efforts. DePauw first announced plans for the business school in March as part of the five-year “DePauw’s Bold & Gold 2027” strategic plan.
DePauw will launch the new program in the fall of 2023.
“We’ve had a long history of producing leaders in business and in other areas, so in some ways, this type of approach isn’t new to DePauw. But actually having major in some of the disciplines, including business analytics and finance, that is new,” said Dave Berque, vice president of academic affairs for DePauw during an interview with Inside INdiana Business in September. “We’re going to do this in a very liberal arts and sciences way.”
The university says candidate materials should be received by Feb. 17.
