Members of the CPI Executive Committee (EC) are selected each year by the CPI Chair and ratified by the full Council. The EC meets for a coordination meeting the first Wednesday of every month from 11:30 a.m. to 1:15 p.m. and invites research administrative representatives from Texas A&M, HSC, TEES, TTI, and AgriLife Research to attend.
The CPI EC also meets regularly with the Texas A&M President, Provost and Vice President for Research; Distinguished Professor’s Executive Committee; The Texas A&M University System Chancellor; and Congressman Bill Flores and other representatives or administrators upon request.
The CPI-EC can be contacted by sending an email to cpi-ec@listserv.tamu.edu.
