Regents in January will consider hiring Dr. Eleanor Green to serve as dean of the Texas A&M University College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences.
Her appointment would be effective March 1 if the Texas A&M University System Board of Regents approved the recommendation. Green would be the first woman to serve as dean of the college.
She would succeed Dr. H. Richard Adams, who is returning to the faculty of the Department of Veterinary Physiology and Pharmacology.
A national search attracted applicants and nominations from leading institutions in the United States, officials said.
In a statement, Texas A&M Provost and Executive Vice President for Academics Jeffrey S. Vitter cited Green's national and international reputation in large-animal clinical sciences and her role as the chief of staff for the veterinary teaching hospital at the University of Florida as key reasons for her consideration.
She also currently serves as professor and chair of the Department of Large Animal Clinical Sciences in the College of Veterinary Medicine at the University of Florida, Gainesville.
