Dr. Kate Bukoski holds a PhD and an MA in design from the University of Minnesota Twin Cities and studied the history of decorative arts at Bard Graduate Center in New York City. She has been a faculty member at ECU since 2006, first in the graphic design program and eventually serving as assistant director, then as director of the School of Art and Design.

Bukoski’s scholarly work leverages her background in graphic design to conduct community-based research. She currently works with colleagues in economics and anthropology to finalize an NEA-funded grant on the economic and social impact of ECU’s GlasStation in the town of Farmville, North Carolina.

In the coming 2024–2025 academic year, Bukoski will be the interim director for the School of Theatre and Dance.
