Dr. Tres Bodet started at Baylor in 2023. Prior to that, he taught at Auburn University while obtaining bachelor’s degrees in Psychology and Communication, at Universiteit Hasselt through a Fulbright grant, and at the University of Houston while obtaining his doctorate in Cognitive, Behavioral, and Developmental Neuroscience.

His interests lie in understanding how different teaching approaches and technologies affect learning and the role that the brain plays in predicting learning outcomes.
