Boyen Huang tells the dental ed community he is standing down as head of the school of dentistry at Charles Sturt U

Professor Huang says he advised staff that he would leave at the end of the year two months ago. And now he announces his departure to the wider dental world. He will leave when his contract expires, because his partner will complete their PhD in veterinary microbiology this year and it is unlikely they will find employment as a vet science researcher or academic in Orange, where the dental school is based. “To make a family commitment for us as a dual career couple, it is my turn to support my partner’s career plan,” Professor Huang states.

“Although there are still five months ahead before I step down from the CSU Head of School position, I would like to say I really appreciate everyone’s support and assistance over the past five years.”
