Center Executive Committee

The Center Executive Committee (CEC) provides governance and strategic direction of the center and is composed of a diverse set of individuals ranging from:

• executives from the manufacturing industry
• regular tenure-track faculty from The Ohio State University
• faculty or administrators from other local universities
• policy or technical leaders from other research or governmental entities.

As a whole, this group has the broad insight required to set directions relevant to CDME’s purpose, while cognizant of the needs and limitations of industry, academia and other research entities. The CEC also advises the Executive Director on any major issues, including political climate, policy changes, operations, and financial issues.
