Dear Cullen College Faculty and Staff,


As our presence in Katy continues to expand, the decision has been made to introduce a new position within the college: the Director of Engineering Programs at UH-Katy. I am pleased to report that Dr. Brian Metrovich officially assumed this role on March 1.


Dr. Metrovich joined the Cullen College in 2016, and since that time has become an indispensable member of our community. After receiving his Ph.D. in Civil Engineering from Lehigh University in 2004, Dr. Metrovich established himself as a leading engineering educator at several universities, including Tulane University, University of Miami, Case Western and Johns Hopkins. Since joining the Cullen College, Dr. Metrovich has become an important leader in our highly regarded First Year Experience (FYE) Program and currently serves as a senior mentor for our junior faculty. In addition to these responsibilities, Dr. Metrovich also participates in undergraduate advising and serves on the Undergraduate Committee of the UH faculty senate.


In his new role as Director of Engineering Programs at UH-Katy, Dr. Metrovich will lead and direct all engineering academic programs, services and activities at the UH at Katy campus; represent the position of Dean of Engineering as required at UH at Katy leadership meetings; work with our partners at HCC to develop and execute strategies for the UH/HCC Engineering Academy at Katy; coordinate with leadership of various graduate programs to develop new course and certificate offerings; work with the Associate Dean of Undergraduate Programs and Distance Learning and college staff to develop undergraduate and graduate teaching schedules; recruit staff and faculty for UH at Katy; and assist with engineering fundraising efforts for the Katy campus and its programs.


I am confident in Dr. Metrovich’s ability to oversee this important initiative. His exceptional teaching and service record make him an ideal candidate to lead our UH at Katy enterprise and help advance the mission of our college. Please join me in congratulating Dr. Metrovich in his new role!

Warm Regards,
