THE VICE PRESIDENT'S NEW INITIATIVES PLANNING FOCUSES ON STRENGTHENING UNIVERSITY’S ENTERPRISE IN ALL AREAS OF RESEARCH, TECHNOLOGY, & INNOVATION

From the beginning of his term as vice president of Prairie View A&M University’s Division of Research and Innovation in 2019, Dr. Magesh T. Rajan has instituted several initiatives that benefit our faculty, students, and campus research community. The vice president’s initiatives tackle challenges and opportunities requiring institutional prioritization and broad participation across the university.

The initiatives aim to strengthen Prairie View A&M University’s enterprise as a Texas land-grant university toward knowledge inquiry, scholarly research, discoveries, and technology innovation to impact and elevate our state’s communities. They also ensure that we stand as a beacon of diversity, equity, inclusion, access, and belonging, by preparing the next generation of scholars for lives well-lived.
