Sweitzer to Serve as Acting Dean of ENHP
Posted 6/1/2005
H. Frederick Sweitzer will serve as acting dean of the College of Education, Nursing and Health Professions while Dean Dorothy Zeiser takes a one-year leave of absence, Provost Donna M. Randall announced Tuesday.
Sweitzer, who currently serves as associate dean and professor of education and human services, will assume his new duties on July 6.
“I am looking forward to working with Fred Sweitzer, and I am confident that he will perform admirably in Dean Zeiser’s absence,” Randall said.
Sweitzer joined the University of Hartford faculty in 1985. He began his career in the College of Education as coordinator of the human services degree program. In 1990, he was appointed chair of the Division of Education in the newly formed College of Education, Nursing and Health Professions. He was promoted to associate professor in 1991, full professor in 1999, and has been associate dean for six years.
Sweitzer is an accomplished teacher and a nationally recognized scholar. In 1999, he received the university's Roy E. Larsen Award for Distinguished Teaching. His book, The Successful Internship: Transformation and Empowerment, published in 1999 with a second edition issued in 2003, weaves theory, research, and practice into an understanding of the internship as a culminating learning experience.
