MARCY, N.Y. — A national search is underway for a new permanent president for SUNY Polytechnic Institute (SUNY Poly).
Led by SUNY Poly’s College Council, the search follows SUNY’s presidential search policy guidelines as the college seeks a strong leader to continue the institution’s legacy of experiential learning and cutting-edge research opportunities.
The search begins in the wake of news that the SUNY Board of Trustees voted earlier this month to consolidate the College of Nanoscale Science and Engineering back on the University at Albany campus. Since 2014, administrative functions were located at SUNY Poly.

Tod Laursen served SUNY Poly as acting president for two years, departing the role on Dec. 14.
“On behalf of SUNY Polytechnic Institute’s Presidential Search Committee, we are proud to announce that this new, national search to find SUNY Poly’s next president has begun,” College Council Chair RoAnn Destito said in a press release. “We look forward to embarking on this process to provide permanent leadership. In addition, after the expected transfer of the College of Nanoscale Science and Engineering, located in Albany, to the University at Albany, the successful president candidate will continue to foster the growth and success of our Utica campus, enabling SUNY Poly’s unmatched student experience as well as further supporting economic activity in the Mohawk Valley and across New York state.”
The committee plans to retain the services of an executive search firm to identify appropriate candidates through targeted outreach and screening.
