Dr. Parwinder Grewal, an internationally recognized nematologist, will start March 1 as the new Dean and Director of the UH College of Tropical Agriculture and Human Resources, after a comprehensive search process.

Dr. Grewal most recently served as the inaugural president for Vermont State University while simultaneously serving as president of Castleton University, Northern Vermont University and Vermont Technical College. He has authored and co-authored more than 200 refereed articles with more than 15,000 citations, and he has been included in the World’s Top 2% Most Cited Scientists List in 2021 (PLoS Biology).

“Dr. Parwinder Grewal brings a wealth of scientific expertise, significant and diverse academic administrative experience and a passion for public service to this position,” said UH Mānoa Provost Michael Bruno. “He will bring visionary leadership to our critical work in agriculture, sustainability, and human health. He will not only lead CTAHR but I believe he will become a valued leader in agriculture here in Hawaiʻi and the Pacific region.”
