Faculty & Staff
Governor’s School in the Integration of Biological & Statistical Sciences
Several ETSU math and science faculty as well as other resource individuals provided special learning sessions that enhanced and enriched the classroom studies. All of the ETSU faculty provided "experimental design" sessions in which they shared their research and the experimental design they used to carry out the research. These sessions provide excellent background information for students as they design and carry out their own research projects. The students will also experience an array of off-campus trips ranging from studies at the Gray Fossil Site to the the Carter Family Fold & Museum. The individuals who lead these sessions are also included. A brief bio for each of these individuals is provided below in the Bio section.
