Advancing Leaders
Lantz graduated from the PhD program in 2024, and now works as a Research Associate for Boise State’s Idaho Policy Institute.
“While in the program, I had the opportunity to work on interesting, hands-on projects through my classes and my research assistantship. Faculty and students in the program also have a broad array of interests and projects that they are working on, which provides chances to learn new approaches and expand one’s horizons.”
