Miami University has named Conrado "Bobby" Gempesaw, dean of the College of Business and Economics at the University of Delaware, as its top academic officer.
Gempesaw, a native of the Philippines, will start as provost in May 2011. He has been dean at Delaware since 2006 and his research is concentrated in areas including financial simulation, agribusiness and international trade.
He will replace Jeff Herbst, who left this past summer to become president of Colgate University. John Skillings will continue as interim provost through the remainder of this academic year.
Gempesaw was chosen from four finalists, including Valerie Hardcastle, dean of the College of Arts & Sciences at the University of Cincinnati.
"Dr. Gempesaw will bring creative thinking, visionary leadership and strong management skills to Miami during a time of great change in higher education," Miami President David Hodge said in a statement.
Gempesaw will earn $310,000 a year. He earned a bachelor's degree in Economics from Ateneo de Davao University in the Philippines, a master's degree from West Virginia University and a doctoral degree in Agricultural Economics from Penn State University in 1985.
