Biography

Dr. Karkowski is trained as a learning theorist and uses that expertise to foster self-reflective learning in her students. While she readily supervises student research projects in any area that is important to the student researchers, her own research focus includes student learning and development. She enjoys working with other faculty and staff to improve the student experience on campus and to help faculty and staff become the professionals that they want to be.
