Faculty Administrative Leadership Program - 2019-20 Fellows
Academic Affairs Fellow |
Adrian Brasoveanu |
|
Professor Brasoveanu is a formal semanticist and a computational psycholinguist. The two main questions driving his research are: (i) What is linguistic meaning? (ii) How does the human mind grasp it? He builds evidence-based, mathematically and computationally explicit theories of natural language meaning (product) and interpretation (process) that try to answer these two questions.

Testimonial: "As a 2019-20 FALP Fellow, I received hands-on mentorship in an area of campus administration that is critical for the mission of the university. I was able to ask as many questions as I wanted, and got a real behind-the-scenes look at how decisions are made, which will make me a better campus citizen going forward. I also greatly appreciated the community built during the Leadership Academy, where I learned skills that are widely applicable as a researcher, teacher, and faculty member, and where I was able to meet people from diverse units across campus with whom I would not have otherwise interacted." |
