Dr. Tyler Clark

Dr. Tyler Clark grew up in Marion County, Kentucky. Tyler came to the Hill as a member of the first class of the Gatton Academy of Mathematics and Science. He earned his Bachelor of Science and Master of Science in mathematics at WKU. He went on to complete his Ed.D. in post secondary leadership and gifted education from WKU as well. He also received a Master of Science in mathematics from the University of Central Florida. He now serves as the assistant director of operations at the Center for Gifted Studies and is the executive administrator at the World Council for Gifted and Talented Children.

To further give back to the university, Tyler established the Dr. Tyler Clark Scholarship in 2021.

Through this fund, Tyler’s legacy lives on in perpetuity.
