University. She received a Fulbright-Hayes fellowship in Ecuador, living in Quito
for over a year. She studied for a Master's of Liberal Studies at the University

for a year. She continued art history at the University of Kansas with a full fellowship,
getting both a Master's and doctorate. At NSU, she has received several faculty grants

Dr. Bozes publications and current research focus especially on promoting effective
teaching by instructors and greater learning by students, encouraging critical thinking
in both teaching (such as approaches for non-specialists) and learning (such as recognizing
fallacies in popular histories.)
As an art historian, Dr. Bozes principal teaching goal is to utilize the investigating,
associating, and exploring of different art styles and cultures in order to improve
and encourage intellectual thinking, stimulating students to follow a critical method
of questioning, reasoning, and learning.
