Professors and students achieve national and regional recognition for teaching and research and are responsible for Tech reputation of excellence. Tech faculty earn recognition and grants from the National Science Foundation, NASA, Oak Ridge National Laboratories and national professional societies, allowing students to study and engage in research with respected scholars in their fields of study.

Through experiential learning opportunities and an engaged community of education partners, the academic work of students at Tech has an impact far beyond the classroom. Whether it is nursing students doing community health work in Belize or in rural medical clinics in Tennessee, or engineering students designing latrines for villages abroad or medical equipment for children with special needs, or agriculture students studying food insecurity and building community gardens, Tech students become lifelong learners who use their curiosity, skills and passion for good.
