Trojan Leaders in Academia
The USC Viterbi School of Engineering not only empowers the creative thinkers and innovators who help solve grand challenges; it prepares the leaders that educate and inspire the next generation of engineers.
As of July, nine former USC Viterbi students and faculty served as presidents or deans of engineering at some of the nation’s top colleges and universities.
