Solis named dean of Butler's College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences

Robert Solis has been named dean of the College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences at Butler University.

“Bob’s significant experience as a faculty member, department chair, and faculty senate president at Drake make him an ideal candidate to serve as the next dean,” Butler Provost Kathryn Morris said. “I believe Bob will elevate [the college] from its already strong standing, and he will contribute to the broader academic leadership team at Butler. I look forward to working with him.”

Solis, who holds his bachelor's in Pharmacy from Butler and his doctorate in Pharmacology/Toxicology from the Indiana University School of Medicine, has most recently taught at Drake University. He will assume his new position on June 27.
