Reflection Paper

Reflecting on your learning and engaging with a mentor are important elements in a full, doctoral development experience.

During your program, you will have the opportunity to complete an ungraded professional journal at the conclusion of each course and receive feedback from a faculty mentor.

• Justify your specific action plan going forward.
