��ǳܳ��

Dr. Hinrich Eylers is the Vice Provost for Academic Operations and Doctoral Studies at the ��۴�ý. He is responsible for the operations of the Registrar’s and Admissions Offices and leads the College of Doctoral Studies. 

Previously, he held the positions of Executive Dean, Associate Provost and Dean of the College of Natural Sciences at the University. Prior to joining the University in 2009, Dr. Eylers spent 15 years in various roles in civil and environmental engineering consulting, sustainability consulting, teaching, and business and technology program management.  

I’m a big believer in the Socratic Method. Especially at the doctoral level, students shouldn’t just get straight answers to all their questions. Often, thought-provoking questions leading to the right answers are a lot more helpful.
