The University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science announces the appointment of Kent Island resident Lynn Rehn as vice president for administration. She joins the leadership team at Maryland’s premiere environmental research university, headquartered in Cambridge, as the chief financial and operating officer.
Rehn comes to UMCES from the University of Maryland Baltimore County, where she served as Assistant Vice President/Comptroller since 2009. Previously, she was Comptroller at the University of Maryland College Park, and held the position of Comptroller at UMCES between 2000 and 2005.
“Lynn comes back to us with deep knowledge of both University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science and University System of Maryland operations and with a strong commitment to our mission,” said UMCES President Dr. Donald Boesch. “We are excited about having Lynn return in this important leadership capacity. “
As Vice President for Administration, Rehn is responsible for the development of operating and capital budgets, financial management and accountability, facilities and personnel management, research administration and compliance with laws, regulations and policies of the State of Maryland, University System of Maryland, and UMCES.
Previous Vice President for Administration Erica Kropp retires after more then 40 years serving the University System of Maryland, 11 of those years with UMCES.
