EnglishWhere to Find Faculty, Staff, and Student Directories on the FSU Biology Website
Updated
The FSU Department of Biological Science website (bio.fsu.edu) consolidates its people-finding tools under the Directories and Information section of the main navigation. From there you can reach separate directories for faculty, emeritus and courtesy faculty, staff and associates, undergraduate advisors, postdoctoral associates, and graduate students, plus biology email aliases and the university-wide phone/email directory. Use the department directories when you need a specific person's contact details; use the FSU Phone/Email Directory when the person may sit outside Biology.
Department directories
The site lists these directories as distinct entries, so pick the one matching the person's role:
| Directory | Who it covers |
|---|---|
| Faculty Directory | Current departmental faculty |
| Faculty Emeritus Directory | Retired faculty holding emeritus status |
| Courtesy Faculty Directory | Faculty with courtesy appointments |
| Staff and Associates Directory | Staff and associated personnel |
| Undergraduate Advising Directory | Undergraduate academic advisors |
| Postdoctoral Associates Directory | Postdoctoral researchers |
| Graduate Students Directory | Current graduate students |
A Social Media Directory is also listed if you are trying to reach the department through its social channels rather than by email or phone.
Email aliases and the university directory
Two additional entries help when you don't know an individual's address:
- Biology Email Aliases — departmental alias addresses that route to a group or function rather than one person. Useful for general inquiries when the right contact isn't obvious.
- FSU Phone/Email Directory — the university-level lookup. Use this when someone isn't listed in the Biology directories, for example staff in central administrative offices.
How to use the directories effectively
- Start from the Directories and Information menu on the Biology main page.
- Choose the directory by role — a graduate student will not appear in the Faculty Directory, and an emeritus professor may appear only in the Emeritus list.
- If the name doesn't appear, try the FSU Phone/Email Directory before assuming the person has left.
- For a general question rather than a named contact, check the Biology Email Aliases first.
The site also provides a Contact Us link and an Inquire About The Department form, which are better fits for prospective students or visitors than a personal directory entry.
Related navigation
The same menu area links to the FSU Campus Map and a Resource Guide, which help once you have a name and need to find a building or office — the department is based in the KING Life Sciences Building. Prospective graduate and undergraduate students looking for program contacts rather than individual people should use the Graduate Program and Undergraduate Studies sections instead.
