Shana Hagan-Burke Appointed New EPSY Department Head
Dr. Shana Hagan-Burke was selected to be the new department head for the Department of Educational Psychology. Dr. Hagan-Burke, who’s worked in the department as an associate professor for 11 years, most recently served as associate department head under former head Dr. Vic Willson.
“It’s an exciting challenge becoming the new department head and I look forward to learning more,” said Dr. Hagan-Burke. “I think Dr. Willson has done an outstanding job being the glue as far as maintaining our identity within the college and ensuring that EPSY stays cohesive.”
Dr. Hagan-Burke said that the transition into her new position comes at a very exciting time within the department.
“We have a number of amazing academic programs and outreach efforts under way and I take great pride in them because they are a part of our department,” she said. “I believe we have some extraordinarily talented people here and I also believe that we’ve made an investment to support newer faculty so that they can be successful and grow into the position.”
