University of Tennessee
Hiring · 542 open jobsGeneral information
The University of Tennessee is a public, land-grant research university with five campuses across the state. It offers education, research programs, and community services to the public. About 40,784 students study there, including undergraduates and postgraduates. The university's main campus is in Knoxville, Tennessee.
The University of Tennessee was founded on September 10, 1794, as Blount College. That was two years before Tennessee became a state, making the university older than the state itself. It is governed by a 12-member board of trustees, appointed by Tennessee's governor. That public governance means big decisions about the university are made by state-appointed leaders, not a private board. University of Tennessee is a top-tier H-1B sponsor.1
