Since its founding as Chattanooga University in 1886, The University of
Tennessee at Chattanooga has developed an institutional excellence which
rests on an unusual blend of the private and public traditions of
American education. For 83 years the University was a private school. In
1969 the University of Chattanooga and a junior college, Chattanooga
City College, merged with the University of Tennessee, one of the oldest
land-grant universities in the nation, to form the UTC campus.
In 1977, the UTC College of Engineering earned accreditation from the
Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET). Our new 28
million dollar state-of-the-art facility was completed in 2003. We offer
a B.S.E. Undergraduate Degree with concentrations in Chemical, Civil,
Electrical, Environmental, Industrial and Mechanical Engineering. Our
campus is also home to the UT SimCenter at Chattanooga. The mission of
the center is to serve U.S. government and industry through integrated
research and education in computational engineering.
The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga became a PLTW Affiliate in
2004
