WSU Law professor receives award

Professor of Law Michael McIntyre has been honored with Wayne State University’s President’s Award for Excellence in Service.

McIntyre, who joined Wayne Law in 1975, has been “both an inspiring teacher and productive scholar,” according to WSU President Allan Gilmour.

McIntyre teaches various tax courses, writes widely on tax topics and, for the last 30 years, has consulted widely on a range of tax policy issues for various public bodies.

He has testified numerous times before various committees of Congress and is widely quoted in the international press.

He has served as a consultant to various U.S. states and to national governments — including Australia, Bangladesh, Brazil, Canada, Egypt, New Zealand, Peru, Romania, Spain, United States and Vietnam — on six continents.

In addition, McIntyre has served as a consultant to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development as well as the United Nations’ Committee of Experts on International
Cooperation in Tax Matters, a group that has prepared and updated the UN’s model tax treaty.

In 1990, McIntyre received the WSU Board of Governors Faculty Recognition Award for his book, “The International Income Tax Rules of the United States.” He is also the author (with B. J. Arnold), of a book titled “International Tax Primer,” the second edition of which was published in 2002.

“His induction into the University’s Academy of Scholars in 2012 is recognition of his outstanding contribution to the Wayne State University Law School and of his national and international reputation in his field,” Gilmour said.

McIntyre also has volunteered at Wayne State throughout his career. He has been a member of the Academic Senate for more than 20 years, and was the primary author of the final report created by an ad hoc committee formed to develop a new Board of Governors statute at Wayne on centers and institutes.

He also served on various other university ad hoc committees, including the President’s Budget Advisory Committee in 2012.
