Prior to assuming his current administrative duties on the OU-Tulsa campus, he was the director of the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering, leading the school through a period of historic growth. More recently, he served as senior associate dean for the Gallogly College of Engineering where he led research administration, faculty development and graduate education.
“Jim Sluss is the ideal person to lead OU-Tulsa throughout this important transition,” said OU President Joseph Harroz, Jr. “His familiarity with the campus, its history, and his long-served tenure at the university will serve us well as we formalize a distinct strategic plan for OU-Tulsa.”
Sluss earned his bachelor of science in physics from Marshall University, and his masters and doctoral degrees in electrical engineering from the University of Virginia.
