Board of Trustees
The board of trustees is the legal governing body of Pratt Institute, responsible for assuring the financial health and future growth of the Institute, and instrumental in fundraising and maintaining contacts with people, institutions and resources. As the chartered legal entity for Pratt, the board is the final institutional authority and grants all degrees awarded by the Institute, upon recommendation of the faculty. The board assures administrative competence, effectiveness, stability and continuity by working closely with the president, who oversees the other officers of the institution. The board also has responsibility for articulating general education policies and academic goals and has the final approval of all programs, curricula and courses. Both trustees and officers recognize the responsibility and authority of the faculty in developing, implementing, and monitoring the quality of Institute programs, curricula and courses.
