TECH IS THE IN TENNESSEE —MONEY Magazine
BOLD
ONE OF THE TOP RANKED UNIVERSITIES IN THE NATION
“Tech has empowered me to be able to reach beyond what I imagined I would get out of college. The research that I’ve been working on has taught me perseverance in the face of failure. There is a lot of failure in organic synthesis, but it teaches you to “fail forward” as some might say. Each failure is just another data point to steer you towards success, and that lesson will stick with me forever.”
