It is a pleasure to welcome Kate Mueller to the University Relations team as the Academic Advancement Director for the Notre Dame Law School.  She will begin her new role effective Friday, March 1, 2019.

Kate is currently the Managing Director of the Notre Dame Center for Social Research, where she serves faculty, students, and staff across all academic disciplines to improve the quality and efficiency of social research at the University.  She holds undergraduate degrees from Notre Dame in Government and Spanish, and a J.D. from Notre Dame Law School.  Since 2010, she has served as a member of the University’s Institutional Review Board and since 2014, has chaired that Board.  After graduating from the Law School, Kate practiced law in the areas of commercial, employment, probate, governmental, and civil rights litigation, before returning to her alma mater in 2009 to launch the Center for Social Research.

Kate’s leadership and positive impact extend beyond her professional role.  She is a board member at the Early Childhood Development Center, actively serves in ministry at St. Pius X Catholic Church, and provides pro bono legal services in our local community.

You can expect to see Kate soon, and in the meantime can contact her at kate.mueller@nd.edu to welcome her to University Relations.
