Middle Tennessee State University‘s “Out of the Blue” TV magazine show warms up winter with our February 2020 edition, featuring a conversation about MTSU’s new degree in data science, a visit with our Distinguished Visiting Professor in political science, and an opportunity to learn more about a unique mobile kitchen project. Join us to hear from:

• Drs. Charlie Apigian and Lisa Green, who’ll explain how our new data science degree is combining the best of the Department of Information Systems and Analytics in the Jones College of Business and the Department of Mathematical Sciences in the College of Basic and Applied Sciences to help educate students for Tennessee’s growing workforce needs.

• Former state House Speaker Beth Harwell, who’s joined our Department of Political Science and International Relations in the College of Liberal Arts to work across disciplines on campus to boost political dialogue, mentor legislative interns and advise student journalists on the government beat.

• Dr. Lisa Sheehan-Smith, a nutrition and food science expert in our Department of Human Sciences in the College of Behavioral and Health Sciences who has the latest update on a great new program, “Educated Eats,” providing nutrition information and cooking demonstrations for the community.
