Chattanooga, TN

School Details

When the Methodist Episcopal Church began to explore the possibilities of developing a central university in the South, Chattanooga came forward to work with the church in this effort. In 1886 Chattanooga University was founded as a private school. After years of growth and mergers with other schools, The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga was born.  

Today, UTC is a national model for metropolitan universities and features an experiential learning environment. Its goal is to inspire change while enriching and sustaining the community. UTC offers more than 100 undergraduate majors, an abundance of undergraduate minors, and over 100 graduate programs.

A variety of these undergraduate and graduate degrees are available as online and hybrid programs. UTC online degrees are dedicated to meeting learner needs and offer numerous support services to support online learning. Online programs offer the same quality and rigor that are found in on-campus programs.
