Board of Advisors

The primary purpose of the Industrial Advisory Board (IAB) is to:

  • Provide advice to maintain CSE program curricula to be current.
  • Increase national level visibility of the department by strengthening ties between the department, industry, and the government.
  • Promote our graduates and aid in undergraduate and graduate students seeking high-quality jobs.
  • The IAB and its members are requested to serve as an advocacy group with the State of Texas and University officials on behalf of the department and its programs.
  • Serve as a constituent for the CSE Department’s programs with regards to ABET (program educational objectives and input to the curriculum) accreditation.
  • Establish sustainable funding models to provide resources (fellowships, and other forms of support) to be competitive with peer institutions.
