Dr. Dohyeong Kim joined the Department of Public Administration at North Carolina Central University in August 2008. He has taught various graduate-level courses such as Quantitative Analysis for Program Evaluation, Economic Research for Policy Analysis, Research Methods for Public Administration, and Independent Study Project on Public Health and Emergency Management. He has also served on various committees in the department and the university.

Dr. Kim holds a bachelor's and master's degree in Public Administration (Yonsei University, Seoul, Korea) and a doctorate degree in City and Regional Planning (University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill). His doctoral dissertation at UNC-CH, funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, developed a set of policy analysis tools to inform policymakers' decisions on community-based immunization planning in developing countries. It employed interdisciplinary approach integrating various economic modeling and quantitative techniques such as statistical estimation, cost-benefit analysis, Geographic Information Systems (GIS), and policy optimization. In recognition of his dissertation research, he has been selected as a "2008 New Investigator in Global Health" by the Global Health Council.

He has been actively involved in a series of domestic and international research projects at the Children's Environmental Health Initiative (CEHI) in the Nicholas School of the Environment at Duke University and Duke Global Health Institute (DGHI). His collaborative research with Duke research teams includes statistical, economic, spatial, and decision-analytic approaches to address a variety of environmental health concerns both in the US and internationally, such as childhood lead poisoning, arsenic in groundwater, malaria control, and so on. His work has been widely circulated in peer-reviewed journals, such as Value in Health, Health Policy and Planning, Environment and Planning C, Tropical Medicine and International Health, Environmental Science & Technology, and Environmental Health Perspective. He has also made over 30 presentations at scholarly venues around the world. Recently, he has been awarded several extramural research grants from the National Institute of Health (NIH), World Health Organization (WHO) and Duke University.

Dr. Kim has obtained extensive international research and professional expericences as a policy consultant for developing countries, a field survey data collection and management supervisor, and an editorial board member and peer reviewer for international journals. His international experiences cover Tanzania, Uganda, Kenya, Liberia, Vietnam, Thailand, Indonesia, China, and the Republic of Korea. His current research and teaching interests cover a wide span of interdisciplinary planning and public administration aspects; public policy analysis for various health and environmental concerns, quantitative analysis for public program evaluation, applied economics and public finance, community-based health planning, and GIS and spatial modeling.
