Dean of the Tepper School of Business at Carnegie Mellon University, Kenneth B. Dunn, announced that he'd be stepping down from his post as dean on January 1, 2011. This information was released in a CMU Tepper press release on Tuesday. Deans at Harvard Business School, Michigan Ross, Chicago Booth, and Northwestern Kellogg have also stepped down recently.
Dunn has been serving as dean of Tepper since 2002.
“I accepted the position of dean because I wanted to give back to the place that has been so influential in my life and career,” said Dunn. “Without question, the Tepper School is one of the world’s best business schools and I was honored to be invited to lead such a great institution."
According to Tepper administration, faculty, and students, Dunn has contributed significantly to the top b-school, including leading the $55 million naming donation from David and Marlene Tepper and implementing infrastructure, facility, and academic upgrades.
According to Mark S. Kamlet, CMU executive vice president and provost, "The next dean will have a very solid foundation, indeed, upon which to advance the school."
