Science Advisory Council
Wesleyan established a Science Advisory Council in April 2005. The council is a volunteer structure comprised of research scientists, medical doctors and scientific entrepreneurs. All members are either Wesleyan alumni or parents of Wesleyan alumni and are recognized as leaders in their respective fields. The mission of the Science Advisory Council is to strengthen the sciences at Wesleyan and raise their visibility on and off campus.
