Mentor Faculty

The program is committed to building and sustaining a culture of mentoring, one that provides for teaching and learning collaborations that tend to the interests, styles and experiences of adult learners. The program builds a community of mentors from within and outside of the Antioch University system through a variety of ways. The program’s goal to provide students with creative space, intellectually challenging relationships and respectful guidance that can encourage their development as reflective and engaged scholar-practitioners.

In the students’ final pre-candidacy year, they design their own individualized areas of study and work with mentor faculty with expertise in those areas. Mentor faculty are experts in the field who have been approved through a Program process to work with our students.

We believe that the Ph.D. in Leadership & Change Program provides individuals with senior-level experience as scholars and practitioners in a range of professional environments with an exciting opportunity to mentor exceptional, self-directed doctoral students as they design and engage in individualized study in areas of their professional interest. The program seeks educators from many disciplinary homes and professional environments to apply to be Mentor Faculty.
