September 28, 3:00pm – 5:00pm

Hello again.

Our colleague Eugenio (Geno) Acosta has accepted a position as the Program Director of the Institute for Real Estate, here at Notre Dame. He will transition into his new role in October 2018.

Following a career in civil engineering, Geno returned to his alma mater in 2013 as International Alumni Association Program Director in the Notre Dame Alumni Association. In 2016, he joined Development as the Academic Advancement Director for the College of Engineering. During his time as AAD, Geno worked effectively with the dean and faculty to increase connectivity between the College, fundraisers, University donors, and his peer group. His experience as a professional engineer has proven valuable in supporting the College’s ambition to create a professional master’s degree program, and in promoting growth in experiential learning initiatives. Geno’s close work with the department chairs in the College has advanced a range of significant proposals, and important gifts Geno has worked on will favorably impact the College of Engineering’s ability to retain world class faculty, and provide an unmatched education experience for our students. As the University searches for the next dean of the College of Engineering, we have Geno to thank for providing critical continuity to our internal and external constituents.

So we say goodbye to Geno as part of our team, and hello to a colleague who will remain close to the academy and actively involved in an ambitious new initiative that reaches across disciplinary lines.

Thanks for your attention,

Michael Loungo
