About Us
The 5X社区 EHHS Doctoral Student Forum grew out of class discussions among a small group of doctoral students in 2005. The group has offered fall and spring annual retreats and professional development sessions for doctoral students in the college since 2006. The main function of the group is to provide professional development for all doctoral students in the College of EHHS. The organization also strives to open communications among doctoral students, as well as to create a collaborative community to encourage doctoral students to work together, as well as with professors within the College.
Administrative oversight of the EHHS Doctoral Student Forum is provided by Dr. Steve Mitchell, Associate Dean for Administrative Affairs and Graduate Education.
Dean Mitchell is a full professor in the School of Teaching, Learning and Curriculum Studies, with research interests in curriculum development, research design and assessment. He can be contacted at smitchel@kent.edu or by phone at 330-672-0229, or by visiting his office in 407 White Hall.
