Meghan Mitchell, Ph.D. is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Criminal Justice at the University of North Dakota (UND). She earned her B.S. and M.S. from North Dakota State University and her Ph.D. in Criminal Justice from Sam Houston State University.

Dr. Mitchell’s research focuses on corrections, cultural influences, and research methodologies. Currently, she serves as a Co-Principal Investigator on two national (CCWORK) and state-funded (R.E.A.C.H. Wellness Study) longitudinal grants that evaluate correctional workers' mental health and well-being in the U.S. and Canada. In addition to her research, Dr. Mitchell actively collaborates with local agencies, including the F5 Project and Southwest Multi-County Corrections Center, to enhance reentry programs and promote the use of evidence-based practices.

Her work has been widely published in top-tier journals such as the British Journal of Criminology, Justice Quarterly, Journal of Experimental Criminology, Journal of Quantitative Criminology, Criminal Justice & Behavior, Sociological Methods & Research, Journal of Criminal Justice, British Medical Journal Open, and the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health among other places, and she has also contributed to multiple editions of the Division on Corrections and Sentencing (DCS) Handbook. Through her Corrections Research Lab at UND, Dr. Mitchell has co-created with and mentored numerous students and lived-experience authors.
