Anna Ni, an associate dean and professor of public administration at Cal State San Bernardino, has been named an American Council on Education Fellow for 2024-2025.
Ni, who works in the Jack H. Brown College of Business and Public Administration, is one of 26 U.S. academics to receive that honor this year, according to a statement on the university’s website.
“[Ni’s] innovation, ability to adapt and embrace change, and demonstrated record to drive results – coupled with training gained from her participation in the ACE Fellowship program – will further prepare her for leadership roles on our campus,” said Cal State President Tomas Morales in the statement.
Morales nominated Ni for the award.
Founded in 1965, the ACE Fellows Program prepares academic leaders for greater roles. It has trained more than 2,500 faculty, staff, and administrators for senior positions since it started, according to the statement.
