After a national search, the MIT Office of the Vice Chancellor has named Denzil A. Streete senior associate dean and director of the Office of Graduate Education (OGE). Streete succeeds Blanche Staton, who retired this summer after serving for more than 25 years at MIT. He will begin his role at MIT on Sept. 12.
Streete brings significant experience as a leader in critical aspects of graduate student life and learning, including admissions and recruitment, diversity, academic success, and graduate student support. He is currently assistant vice provost for graduate studies and chief of staff, and director of the Office for Graduate Diversity at the University of California at Berkeley, home to 13,000 graduate students in over 126 doctoral and master’s degree programs.
