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.

The committee plans to retain the services of an executive search firm to identify appropriate candidates through targeted outreach and screening.
