I am very pleased to announce the appointment of Associate Professor Peter R. Grant as Interim Director of the Division of Engineering Science for a term of six months, effective January 1, 2023.

Peter joined the University of Toronto Institute for Aerospace Studies (UTIAS) in 2002 as an Associate Professor, coming from Ford Motor Company’s Ford Research Laboratory.
