AUSTIN, Texas—Lisa Kaminski, former assistant dean of the business school at Georgetown University, has been named assistant dean and director of the Houston and Dallas MBA programs at The University of Texas at Austin’s McCombs School of Business.

The new McCombs School Executive MBA in Houston will commence in August 2005. The Houston program and the recently expanded Dallas executive MBA program have experienced exceptional demand from prospective candidates this year and are an important aspect of the school’s commitment to deliver its MBA to working professionals. Kaminski will oversee all administrative aspects of the programs and will join the school on Aug. 15.

A graduate of Harvard University, Kaminski brings more than 20 years of experience in higher education administration to the position. During the last six years, Kaminski served as the assistant dean at Georgetown University in Washington D.C., where she was responsible for the non-degree, certificate and custom executive programs. She was also the director of Georgetown’s executive MBA, consistently ranked by Business Week magazine among the top executive MBAs in the United States. Prior to her work at Georgetown, Kaminski spent more than 15 years at The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), most recently as the director of executive programs at The Sloan School of Management at MIT.
