Advisory Board for
the Sciences and Mathematics
The Advisory Board was
established in Spring 2000 to assist the College of Science and Health to
achieve its mission and to serve as a volunteer group of professionals who
advise the Dean on various aspects of education as viewed from the
external community. It consists of eminent professionals from business,
industry, and alumni constituencies who generously give of their time and
expertise to enhance the excellence of the educational programs at our
College. The College's department chairpersons and faculty from the
Departments of Biology, Chemistry/Physics, Environmental
Science, and Mathematics meet with the Board. The specific
purposes of the Advisory Board are to provide us with the following input:
- overall
guidance in enhancing our programs
- creating a network of professional contacts
- preparation of our graduates for the workforce
- critical skills that would make our graduates more marketable
- current and future trends in the field of science
- job prospects and the job market for science graduates
- internship and placement opportunities for our students and
graduates
- commentary on employed WPUNJ graduates
- availability of their technical employees to serve as guest
faculty
- opportunities for faculty to collaborate with external groups
on short term projects
