Daniel P. Huttenlocher, the John P. and Rilla Neafsey Professor of Computing, Information Science and Business at Cornell University, has been named the university's dean of the Faculty of Computing and Information Science (CIS). He succeeds Robert L. Constable, who is stepping down as dean June 30, when his second five-year term concludes.
"Dan Huttenlocher is the ideal choice for dean, given his history of outstanding work in CIS, his broad interest in computer science, information science and statistics, and his vision for the future of this growing interdisciplinary program," said Cornell Provost Kent Fuchs, who announced the appointment. "I also want to thank Bob Constable for his leadership as CIS's founding dean."
President David Skorton added: "I am very pleased that Dan Huttenlocher will be bringing his vision and expertise to the position of dean of CIS. He has the strong support of the faculty and of Provost Fuchs and myself."
