Adam Leibovich officially began his role as the new dean of the Dietrich School of Arts and Sciences and College of General Studies in July after Pitt named him dean-elect in April 2023. 

Leibovich joined the faculty of the department of physics and astronomy at Pitt in 2003. He became the department Chair in 2015 and associate dean for research and faculty development in 2017. 

During Lebovich’s “vision talk” as a candidate, he said he hopes to advance Pitt’s “greatest asset” — its people. 

“We have amazing students, amazing staff and amazing faculty and they’re doing incredible things,” Leibovich said. “My goal is to try to enable people to do more and to accomplish more along the lines of their goals.”

Students, faculty and staff of the DSAS and CGS are welcome to visit Dean Leibovich during his monthly office hours to ask questions, share ideas or just say hello. All sessions will take place over zoom and login information will be provided on the DSAS website. 

All attendees must use their Pitt email to participate, and no prior scheduling is required.
