Two New York Institute of Technology alumni have been named to the Board of Trustees, the most recent alumni to join the university’s governing board, effective December 2025.

Elizabeth Haines (D.O. ’05) is chief operating officer of Mount Sinai Kravis Children’s Hospital and senior vice president of pediatric services for Mount Sinai Health System. Fred Harris (B.S. ’08, M.B.A. ’10) is managing director and global head of information security and technology risk at Deutsche Bank.

Both alumni are strong ambassadors for the value of a New York Tech education. They are exceptional role models for students and have been actively sharing their expertise with members of the university community. “We are proud that our alumni hold their alma mater in such high regard and are grateful for their willingness to help guide our continued growth and commitment to provide students with a career-focused education,” says New York Tech President Jerry Balentine, D.O.
