2016年8月16日,上海纽约大学新任命两位学校领导者,进一步加强学校对科研的重视与投入。
纽约大学原教务长David McLaughlin将于本月底离职,从9月1日起就任上海纽约大学首席科学导师。
作为一名应用数学家,McLaughlin博士最新研究领域是视觉神经科学,集中研究初级视觉皮质的计算模型。
担任首席科学导师,McLaughlin博士将在数学、科学和科技领域支持上海纽约大学师生的学术发展。他将从各个层面,增强学校与纽约大学、华东师范大学的交流, 并加强政府及中美两国相关支持者之间的联系与互动。
McLaughlin博士将往来于上海纽约大学、库朗数学科学研究所和坦登工程学院。每年,他会在上海常驻约15周,其间将给学生授课并执行导师职责。
“McLaughlin博士担任纽约大学教务长期间的最大成就,就是创建了上海纽约大学。如果不是他不懈努力地塑造我们的‘双重身份’,上纽大不会有今天这样的成就,”上海纽约大学常务副校长雷蒙表示。“他对我们学术使命的深刻理解,他的丰富科研经验,对塑造学校未来有着极高的价值。期待他加入上海纽约大学。”
暑期加入上海纽约大学的还有毛修恺。8月15日,毛修恺被任命为研究生与非学历教育部副主任。
来上海之前,毛修恺博士在深圳的北京大学国际法学院担任学术事务部副主任和法学讲师。
在上海纽约大学,毛修恺将负责管理所有的研究生项目,包括和纽约大学有关的“Shanghai Track”博士生和其他研究项目、硕士项目、博士研究员,以及纽约大学在中国的、通过上海纽约大学运行的特殊项目。
