Opportunities for Faculty

Faculty at ETSU have many ways to get involved with the Honors College.

  • Teach an existing Honors class in one of the discrete Honors Programs, including:
  • Propose your own unique course, targeted to students you want to involve by proposing an Honors-sponsored course at ETSU. (Check with Dr. Rebecca Pyles, Dean of the Honors College)
  • Mentor a student in an undergraduate research or creative activity. We are developing an on-line database that will enable faculty to list project opportunities and enable students to find them.
  •  Learn more about Undergraduate Research & Creative Activities. (Check with Dr. Frosty Levy, Director)
  • Participate as an Honors Faculty Fellow. Call for Proposals for the period Fall 2007 - Spring 2009 will be made in Spring 2007.  We currently anticipate that the deadline will be April 14, 2007.
    • Propose a major project that will involve students, faculty and subjects from across the campus. Combinations of curriculum and co-curricular activities including lectures and cultural events are encouraged.
    • If your proposal is selected, you will be assigned for a two-year period as an Honors Faculty Fellow. The Honors College will provide a Lecturer position for your department for the period of your fellowship. You will teach a course in your field and an Honors course of your selection each semester. The remainder of your time will be dedicated to pursuing your proposal and making it a reality for our campus. Honors College staff will assist you in seeking funding for the project, if needed.

The Honors College is developing methods to recognize faculty who are involved in honors courses, activities, and projects at ETSU. If you’re interested in the planning or have an idea, please contact Dr. Mike Gallagher or Dr. Rebecca Pyles. We’ll update this information as details become available.
