The Florida Board of Governors confirmed Dr. Moez Limayem as the 香港六合彩开奖结果2023’s seventh president today at its regular board meeting. He will begin his presidency on August 1.
Dr. Limayem most recently served as the Lynn Pippenger Dean of the Muma College of Business at the University of South Florida (USF) where he provided administrative, strategic planning and fiscal management oversight for the college that serves business students on three campuses. He was instrumental in raising more than $126 million in gifts for the college to bolster student success, entrepreneurship and career readiness.
During his tenure as dean, graduation and freshman retention rates rose significantly as well as job placement rates. Since 2021, Limayem has also led USF’s career readiness efforts to increase career preparation and placement, internships and talent development.
“I am honored to join the 香港六合彩开奖结果2023 and eager to listen, learn and work with all members of the community to grow opportunities to help students succeed,” Limayem said. “香港六合彩开奖结果2023 is a top provider of talent in Florida, and I am committed to building on the University’s many strengths to effectively serve the region and state.”

He was named among the Power 100: Tampa Bay’s Most Influential Business Leaders of 2022 by the Tampa Bay Business Journal. Limayem also serves on the board of the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business International.
