As we begin the fall semester, we celebrate not only the return of our students but also the significant achievements of our colleagues. At UTC, we honor the outstanding accomplishments of our faculty, many of whom have achieved tenure or promotion. We are privileged to serve alongside such a distinguished faculty body and invite you to join me in congratulating them. UTC is committed to fostering the intellectual growth of both students and faculty. Our development grants support high-value proposals for scholarship, research, and creative activity, while professional development leaves offer periods of renewal and reflection away from regular duties, benefiting faculty on their intellectual journeys.
Research Experience for Teachers mixes collegiate research with K-12 teaching
As part of the National Science Foundation-funded Research Experience for Teachers (RET), for the past three summers faculty from the UTC College of Engineering and Computer Science have worked with teachers in the Hamilton County School System and others on project-based learning that is both effective and fun for students.
