The Kummer Institute for Student Success, Research and Economic Development at Missouri S&T is seeking exceptional, visionary leaders to lead the institute as it redefines higher education for the next 150 years.

Transforming S&T into a leader in innovation and entrepreneurial education requires the right academic leadership. S&T is recruiting and hiring founding directors for four new research centers as well as 20 “catalytic” faculty — 10 professors and 10 chairs — to lead the work of the Kummer Institute.

Over three to five years, another 60 to 100 strategic faculty hires will join Missouri S&T and support the goals of the institute. In this way, the assets of both Missouri S&T and the institute can be leveraged to allow both institutions to grow and thrive together, thereby transforming the Rolla community and all of Missouri.
