Jennifer Ann Morrow, Ph.D.

Associate Professor, Program Coordinator

Hi everyone! My name is Jennifer Ann Morrow and I’m currently the program coordinator for the Evaluation Methodology MS Program, I’m a tenured associate professor affiliated with the Evaluation Statistics and Methodology PhD program, and I’m the CEHHS faculty representative for the IGSDSP interdisciplinary program. I earned my PhD in Experimental Psychology with a concentration in Research Methodology from the University of Rhode Island. Prior to coming to UTK in 2007 I was an Assistant Professor (tenured and promoted to Associate Professor in 2007) at Old Dominion University in the Psychology Department. I typically teach graduate-level courses in survey research, educational research, statistics, and program evaluation.

I focus my research on three main strands: higher education program evaluation and assessment, training emerging evaluation and assessment professionals, and college student development. In the past twenty-two years I have been awarded over $900,000 in external funding from a variety of local and federal agencies, including the National Science Foundation, the Department of Education, and the Spencer Foundation. I have published 38 articles in peer reviewed journals, three book chapters, and have written over 120 grant and evaluation reports.
