New Dean Joins RIT's Business School in Czech Republic
Ryslinkova replaces retiring Dean Vaclav Prosser, who held that position since the school started in 1990.
To mark the transition, a reception is planned for Wednesday, Feb. 14, in Prague at the residence of the United States ambassador. RIT’s College of Business Dean Tom Hopkins, who is also president and CEO of the U.S. Business School, will officially install Ryslinkova at that event.
Ryslinkova most recently served as executive director of the Euro-Czech Forum. Her career includes other leadership positions at various nonprofit organizations in the Czech Republic.
RIT has granted MBA degrees to more than 300 graduates of the U.S. Business School. Many members of the school’s alumni now hold senior management positions in the Czech Republic.
