The Professional and Social Organization for Doctoral Students, Doctoral Alumni, and Faculty in the College of Education
The E-Docs professional organization brings together doctoral students, doctoral alumni, and faculty to engage in social and academic interactions beyond the walls of the classroom, in the hope that such interactions will create collegial friendships and opportunities to learn and grow from each other. E-Docs recognizes how important the support of peers, colleagues, and mentors are in the successful completion of a doctoral program, and hopes through its programming to ease the stress many students feel as they engage in this difficult and important work.

E-Docs is currently accepting membership for the 2011-2012 school year.
