Executive Committee

The program’s Executive Committee plays a vital role in providing guidance on the program based on the members’ years of industry experience. The members of the board are executives appointed by the deans of the Haslam College of Business and Tickle College of Engineering. The committee members are responsible for providing independent perspective, guidance, and expertise on strategy, direction, continuing development, and ongoing implementation of the program. They bring in-depth experience and expertise in support of the program’s director. Executive Committee members volunteer to serve a 3-year term.
