The University of Tennessee is a public land-grant university headquartered at Knoxville. Founded in 1794, it is the flagship institution of the statewide University of Tennessee system with nine undergraduate departments and eleven graduate departments and hosts more than 26,000 students from all 50 states and more than 100 foreign countries. In its 2009 ranking of universities, U.S. News & World Report ranked UT 118th among national universities and 52nd among public institutions of higher learning. Its ties to Oak Ridge National Laboratory, established under UT President Andrew Holt and continued under the UT-Battelle partnership, have positioned the University as co-manager and allow for considerable research opportunities for faculty and students enjoyed by few other institutions of comparable standing. Also affiliated with the University are the Howard H. Baker, Jr. Center for Public Policy, the University of Tennessee Anthropological Research Facility, and the University of Tennessee Arboretum, which occupies 250 acres of nearby Oak Ridge, Tennessee and features hundreds of species of plants indigenous to the region. The University is a direct partner of the University of Tennessee Medical Center, the only Level I trauma center in the East Tennessee region and a self-proclaimed 'teaching hospital' due to its aggressive medical research programs and position as the primary career destination for most medical school graduates of the University of Tennessee Health Science Center at Memphis.

We believe every one of our students can reach heights they never realized were possible given the right circumstances. In the right place, with the right people around them, they can learn and grow like never before, and open up greater possibilities than they imagined. It`s that simple, and that life-changing. When we welcome a student, we`re all in. We`re committed to helping them achieve. To lift them up so they can see what they can become. We make an extraordinary, personal investment in each student that most schools would never consider. Faculty members here are incredibly invested in you as a person, well beyond imparting knowledge. Most are longtime members of our close community and can`t imagine doing it any other way. While the size is personal, there are also plenty of opportunities to grow, from engaging in clubs and sports, to community service and networking with our dedicated alumni. The investment is an extraordinary amount of time and caring. And the payoff for students` lives is thrilling and lasting. It`s no wonder people feel so strongly about our place, once they`ve been here. We call it “bleeding blue.” All you have to do is be ready to explore, engage and grow as our community invests in you. So you can step into a life you never knew was possible. We think that`s truly extraordinary.
