Academics - Learning & Leading
At ETSU, we've always beleived in reaching higher both in and out of the classroom. It's our unique partnerships that have made this possible. Our partnership with Bristol Motor Speedway has made our motor sports management program a winner. Our partnership with the National Storytelling Festival has helped us to offer the nation's only university accredited storytelling program. Our bluegrass program has produced such successful graduates as CMA award-winner Kenny Chesbey. Plus, the Niswonger Digital Media Center has attracted the attention of such companies as Dreamworks and Blue Ridge Mountain Motion Pictures. It's in this tradition of partnership and leadership that we plan to continue reaching higher withj such initiatives as:
•The Gray Fossil Site
•The Roan Scholars Leadership Program
•The Honors College
•A New Performing Arts Center
•Improvements to the University School
These initiatives, especially our new College of Pharmancy, will improve the quality of life and prosperity of our region, as they help to create a skilled workforce—the kind of workforce businesses look for when locating.
