Srikant Raghavan

Dr. Srikant Raghavan joined the faculty of Lawrence Tech’s College of Management in 1987. Louis Petro, dean of the college at that time, recruited him along with three others to develop the Master of Business Administration (MBA) program. The process took two years and LTU’s first class of MBA students was admitted in the fall of 1989.

The college has come a long way since offering that first graduate program, and Dr. Raghavan has been associated with all subsequent additions and adjustments. The next program to be added was the Master of Science in Information Systems (MSIS), followed by the Master of Science in Industrial Operations (MSIO). These were followed by the Doctor of Business Administration and Doctor of Management in Information Technology. All of these programs were accredited by the Association of Collegiate Business Schools and Programs in 1995 and the International Association of Collegiate Business Education in 2001.

Before coming to LTU, Dr. Raghavan worked as a senior research scientist at the Tata Consultancy Services in Bombay, India, and the General Motors Research labs. He holds a bachelor’s degree in physics from the University of Madras, master’s degrees in operational research from both the University of Delhi and the Case Institute of Technology, and a doctorate in management science from the University of Houston.

His research interests are primarily directed toward better teaching of the quantitative disciplines and issues in the application of operations management. He also is interested in exploring the role and accountability of governance entities in business and academia.

Active in a number of professional organizations, including the American Production and Inventory Control Society and Sigma Xi Scientific Research Society, Dr. Raghavan is a professional life member of the Operations Research Society of India (ORSI). He has revived local chapters of ORSI and the Institute for Operations Research and Management Science in 1981 and 1985, respectively.

DEDICATIONThis is a very proud moment for you. Successfully pursuing your dream required a lot of effort and passion. But the hard work isn’t over. You’ll take on another set of challenges in this next phase of your life.

“The man who graduates today and stops learning tomorrow is uneducated the day after.” –Newton D. Baker

Graduation is an exciting time to celebrate your achievements, prepare for a future of opportunities, and embrace a world of infinite possibilities. On behalf of the College of Management, I offer you my hearty congratulations on earning an honor that does not come easily. Welcome to the alumni family of Lawrence Technological University. Reach far and shine brightly. You are a star.

Keep up the good work. We are all proud of you.

Best regards,

COLLEGE OF MANAGEMENT 2015-16 54 LAWRENCE TECHNOLOGICAL UNIVERSITY

About Lawrence Technological UniversityNo other than Henry and Edsel Ford helped Russell E. Lawrence launch a fledgling school called Lawrence Institute of Technology in 1932.

The University’s first campus was located in Highland Park, in a building adjacent to the huge manufacturing facility where Ford’s revolutionary Model T had been built and many other now common labor practices were established.

The new university was founded on the principle that every person should have the opportunity for a college education. From the beginning, there were no restrictions on entering students relating to

race, sex, color, creed, or national or ethnic origin – only the requirement that students qualify for admission and have the desire to succeed. Working students could earn a baccalaureate degree by attending evening programs, day programs, or a combination of the two – a feature unique in 1932 and still remarkable today.

E. George Lawrence became president of the newly founded university in 1934 after the death of the founding president Russell E. Lawrence. He served as president from 1934 to 1964, turning a dream of preparing students for leadership in the new technical era into reality.Wayne H. Buell, who served as president from 1964 to 1977 and as chair of the board and chief executive officer until 1981, worked to build a firm foundation for the University’s early emergence as a technological leader.

Richard E. Marburger was named president of the University in 1977. Lawrence Tech’s first housing center, the Wayne H. Buell Management Building, the Don Ridler Field House, a major addition to engineering facilities, and the massive growth of computer facilities marked his presidency. The University’s name was changed to Lawrence Technological University in 1989.

Charles M. Chambers became president in 1993. During his presidency, he oversaw the construction of the University Technology and Learning Center, University Housing-North, the A. Alfred Taubman Student Services Center, a redeveloped campus quadrangle, and the Center for Innovative Materials Research; revamping of the computer system; creation of Michigan’s first completely wireless campus; and expanded student services.

Lewis N. Walker became president in 2006. He expanded programs in emerging economic sectors such as robotics, defense, and sustainability, including “fast track” certificate programs to help professionals retool for new careers. He also worked to add leadership studies to all undergraduate curricula.

HISTORYA Long and Rich

Virinder K. Moudgil, Lawrence Tech’s seventh president, assumed office in 2012. He has had a long career as a professor and university administrator and was an active researcher in the molecular mechanisms of steroid hormone action and the hormonal regulation of breast cancer. He previously served as senior vice president and provost at Oakland University. At LTU Dr. Moudgil has presided over:

• The construction of the first phase of the A. Alfred Taubman Engineering, Architecture, and Life Sciences Complex connecting the Science and Engineering Buildings.

• The completion of LTU’s third residence hall in August 2015, which was named for Lloyd E. Reuss, the former president of General Motors and longtime chair of LTU’s Board of Trustees.

• The Global Village program, which was launched to help all LTU students learn more about other cultures and the interconnectedness of the world economy.

Lawrence Tech was founded as a college of engineering with only a few hundred students and a handful of faculty. In 1952, the College of Management was re-established, having been originally created in 1939 as part of an earlier industrial engineering curriculum. The College of Architecture and Design evolved in 1962 from the former architectural engineering program. The College of Arts and Sciences was established in 1967. While LTU was originally a commuter college, it now attracts students from 25 states and 60 countries.

The University acquired acreage in Southfield and in 1955 opened its first building on what had been a General Mills research farm. The campus has since expanded to 107 acres and 14 major buildings, as well as the Frank Lloyd Wright-designed Affleck House in Bloomfield Hills, which was donated to the University in 1978.

Today LTU offers more than 100 programs in four colleges, with an enrollment of some 4,500 students. It is among Michigan’s largest independent colleges.

About LTU’s College of ManagementThe College of Management evolved from Lawrence Technological University’s degree program in industrial engineering, which in the 1930s combined technology, business, law, economics, and management subjects to benefit managers and administrators of utilities and manufacturing facilities, particularly the operations of Detroit’s automobile companies and their suppliers.

In the aftermath of the Great Depression in 1939, as financial conditions returned more to normal, Lawrence Tech consolidated much of its business and management coursework, transferring it from the College of Engineering to a newly formed College of Business Administration. It inaugurated a new Bachelor of Science in Business Administration (BSBA).

Several hundred students were pursuing BSBA degrees when the United States entered World War II. Due to the massive swings in enrollment and programs during the war years, the College of Business Administration was disbanded as a separate administrative unit in 1946. Then, as the enrollment grew again through the influx of returning veterans benefiting from the GI Bill, Lawrence Tech reestablished the College of Business Administration as a separate administrative unit in 1952.

Throughout this period, Lawrence Tech’s programs in economics and business administration were led by Edwin O. “Doc” Graeffe.

“All the worthwhile and precious things in life are only obtained through continuous and exacting effort, and their worth is in direct proportion to the effort put forth for their attainment.”

Russell E. Lawrence , 1889–1934

College of Management MissonUsing a model of theory and practice, LTU’s College of Management prepares our students for opportunities in the global economy through interdisciplinary educational programs that emphasize the business, ethical, social, and technological dimensions of leadership and management.

COLLEGE OF MANAGEMENT 2015-16 76 LAWRENCE TECHNOLOGICAL UNIVERSITY

Graeffe’s career with the University ended with his death in 1972, and he was succeeded by Professor Leland A. Lahr, who changed the name of the college to the College of Business and Industrial Management and added a number of specialization tracks, such as accounting and finance, marketing and distribution, personnel and labor relations, operations management, and business administration.

Work on the 105,400-square-foot Wayne H. Buell Management Building began in 1980 and ended in 1982. The partly earth-sheltered building, named for Lawrence Tech’s third president, was designed for energy conservation.

The College of Management took its current name in the early 1980s. In 1989 the college launched the Master of Business Administration program, the first Lawrence Tech graduate degree since the World War II era. Rapidly popular, the MBA was the vanguard of dozens of new graduate programs offered by the University in its quest to meet the evolving needs of students and the professions they enter.

Today, the college remains more committed than ever to developing and offering programs that best serve the needs of the career student. Lawrence Tech’s College of Management has come a long way since its modest beginnings. Not even the University’s founders could have foreseen a College of Management that would offer programs to students throughout southeast Michigan and around the globe.

Currently, the College of Management offers the following degree programs:• Bachelor of Science in Business Administration (BSBA)• Bachelor of Science in Information Technology (BSIT)• Master of Business Administration (MBA)• Master of Science in Information Technology (MSIT)
