There’s no better college town than Chattanooga. Blending a small-town feel with big-city amenities, Chattanooga has it all. Breathtaking scenery. Outstanding outdoor recreation. Vibrant downtown. A welcoming atmosphere.
Nestled at the foot of Lookout Mountain, on the edge of the Tennessee River, Chattanooga is thriving. Nicknamed the “Scenic City,” Chattanooga has been recognized as a top travel destination by Southern Living and The New York Times. And thanks to super-fast internet speeds, Chattanooga is also a hub for technology start-ups. With a campus located right next to downtown, UTC students can take advantage of all the city has to offer.

The 120-acre campus is situated only a few blocks from downtown Chattanooga, a city growing in industry.
Founded in 1886 as a private institution, Chattanooga University. In 1969, the University of Chattanooga and a junior college, Chattanooga City College, merged and affiliated with the University of Tennessee, one of the oldest land-grant universities and became UTC.
The campus is anchored by a 172,000+ square foot LEED-certified library built to encourage collaboration, flexibility and academic success.
Whether you know what you’re going to study or you’re still exploring your options, a UTC degree will help you reach your goals and make an impact on the world.
Personalized degree programs, small class sizes and state-of-the-art learning spaces make going to class engaging and rewarding. Here, professors know your name and are 100% invested in your success.
