Dean Moje selected for Crain’s 2019 Notable Women in Education Leadership
Dean Elizabeth Moje is recognized in Crain’s 2019 Notable Women in Education Leadership report. Honorees from around the state were selected by a team of Crain’s Detroit Business editors based on their career accomplishments, track record of success in the field, contributions to their community, and mentorship of others.
The Crain’s Notable Women series includes Notable Women in Health Care, Finance, Technology, STEM, Nonprofits, and several other categories. Across Michigan, these women navigate company restructurings, argue high-stakes legal cases and find efficiencies in manufacturing processes. They also mentor, teach, and volunteer in their communities. The women profiled in this series are nominated by their peers at work and in the community.
Crain’s celebrated Moje’s career accomplishments by stating that the University of Michigan promoted Elizabeth Birr Moje in 2016 because of her groundbreaking educational research, her role in launching the Center for Education Design, Evaluation and Research, and her ability to develop significant partnerships. “Her community engagement and her research are focused on connecting individuals, schools and communities so that all are strengthened and better able to support young learners. … Elizabeth is contributing to the redefinition of public education for the 21st century,” said Martin Philbert, provost and executive vice president for Academic Affairs.
