The University of Tennessee - Martin

Hello, and welcome to the University of Tennessee at Martin’s Web site and Chancellor’s Corner. Please spend some time with us visiting the other links and features of the site. Get acquainted with the university, and see what we have to offer through excellent academic programs and opportunities for personal and social growth.

UT Martin is “home” to more than 8,000 students who have the choice of more than 100 different specialties in undergraduate and graduate programs. There are majors in the natural and social sciences, humanities, fine and performing arts, computer science, nursing, agriculture, teacher education, business administration and engineering. Master’s degrees are offered in accounting and business administration, counseling and teacher education, family and consumer sciences and agriculture and natural resources systems management.

UTOnline makes earning a degree more convenient, especially for our non-traditional students. The Online Bachelor of University Studies (B.U.S.) degree, as well as online master’s degrees in education (with a major in educational administration and supervision), agriculture and natural resources systems management, community and school counseling, family and consumer sciences and a cohort MBA program, are perfect for students balancing job, family and other responsibilities.

Also extending UT Martin’s reach, is the Office of Extended Campus and Online Studies with centers located in Jackson, Parsons, Ripley and Selmer. These teaching centers offer traditional-age and adult students college credit near home and a seamless transition to UT Martin, if they choose later to attend classes on the main campus.

More than 700 high school students, representing nearly 30 different high schools, are enrolled each year as dual-credit students. UT Martin offers the largest dual-credit enrollment program of any public university in Tennessee. Many students are involved in experiences in one of our travel-study programs. Offered in partnerships with a number of universities around the world, these special programs help prepare our students to move easily throughout a global environment.

A host of intramural, academic, service and social clubs and organizations offer students opportunities to pursue special interests and talents.

Enhancing our academic programs are faculty members, who engage students in rigorous studies while reflecting a sincere concern for students in their classes. The campus also provides targeted assistance for students by providing tutorial, advising and study assistance through the Student Success Center.

The Martin campus offers a technology-enhanced learning environment that includes wireless access to the Internet and a Computer Store located in Boling University Center. More than 90 percent of the entering first-year students arrive with a computer and are ready to learn in a digitally connected environment.
