In the last year, Dean Kelsey Martin and Dr. Mike Pfeffer have been working closely and diligently on the recruitment of the DGIT Deputy Chief Information Officer to lead the Health Sciences Schools’ IT support and services. The search for this position has garnered the attention of over 100 qualified applicants nationwide. The search is underway with an estimated completion by the end of this calendar year.
