David Linville, MD, EdD
Associate Vice President for Clinical Affairs
I have the privilege of serving as the Associate Vice President for Clinical Affairs
for ETSU Health, the academic health sciences center at the university that includes
the colleges of nursing, medicine, pharmacy, public health, and clinical and rehabilitative
health sciences. I also serve in the Quillen College of Medicine as Senior Associate
Dean and Chief of Staff. Most recently, I spent time on the main ETSU campus as the
university’s Executive Vice Provost and its inaugural Secretary of the Board of Trustees.
I am a professor of medical education and have the opportunity to participate in the
basic science courses. I hold a baccalaureate degree in chemistry from the University
of Tennessee at Knoxville and am a graduate of the Quillen College of Medicine. I
also received a doctor of education in higher education leadership from East Tennessee
State University. I enjoy cooking in my free time and spending quality time with my
family.
