Ronald H. Rozensky, Ph.D., chairman of the department of clinical and health psychology in the College of Public Health and Health Professions, has resigned as department chairman. After an 11 -month sabbatical, Rozensky will take the position of associate dean for the college's international programs.

Rozensky will also return to the faculty to continue teaching and clinical supervision responsibilities and focus on several research interests.

Rozensky's leadership has been marked by tremendous growth in research funding since he accepted the position in 1998. Under his guidance, department research support has risen from less than a million dollars a year in 1998 to expenditures of close to $9.5 million last year alone. In addition, the department was named the American Psychological Association's Graduate Students' Department of the Year in 2001 for its outstanding commitment to graduate students and excellent faculty-student relations.
