SER Executive Director Search Committee

A robust search committee representing the UW Board of Trustees, the broader UW community, and key Wyoming stakeholders has been assembled to find a new Executive Director of the School of Energy Resources. This committee will work with Spencer Stuart to screen and select top-tier candidates for in-person interviews on campus later this year.

The committee is being co-chaired by David Emery, Chair of the Energy Resources Council, and Paul Ulrich, a member of the UW Board of Trustees.
