Department of Appalachian Studies
The Department of Appalachian Studies at ETSU is the only Academic department of its kind in the United States. It extends the mission of the Center of Excellence in Appalachian Studies and Services, which has existed since 1984. Though one third of the state of Tennessee falls within the Appalachian region, ETSU is the only four-year institution in the state whose mission is to serve the Appalachian region. ETSU embraces its regional setting and proudly reflects its traditional roots and Appalachian heritage. ETSU’s location in the heart of Appalachia positions it to capitalize on the region as a laboratory for research, service learning, active community work, and building collections. The Department, along with the Center, provides a centralized unit for developing degrees and certificates, promoting research, and extending the service mission of ETSU.
