IUSO Dean's Development Council

About the Dean's Development Council

The IU School of Optometry’s Dean’s Development Council (DDC) members play an important role in achieving the school’s mission. These optometric leaders work in close collaboration with the IUSO Dean and Office of Advancement, sharing knowledge, expertise, and resources to broaden IUSO’s reach and implement the school’s strategic priorities.

DDC members serve renewable three-year terms at the discretion of the Dean. Members are invited to share their unique insight and passion for the field to strengthen IUSO’s program and support emerging professionals in optometry.
