As Tennessee’s first higher education institution, Tusculum has been a pioneer in learning for 228 years. Today, the university offers abundant opportunities for students to participate in undergraduate research, be published in a literary journal, become the next generation of teachers, influence the growth of sport management, shape the environment, become the newest entrepreneurs and work in theater management.
In recent years, Tusculum students have examined potential new anti-cancer drugs and designed a customized graphics package for the Ford Mustang. Graduates have achieved the National Book Award for poetry and become the president of administration for the National Basketball Association.
“With more than 60 majors and minors from which to choose and a wealth of activities to align with their interests, students find Tusculum to be the right choice for their education,” said Dr. Jacob Fait, vice president of enrollment management and financial aid. “Students are not a number at Tusculum but instead are integral members of the university family with the ability to make a difference from the get-go. We look forward to sharing the Tusculum story with our open house attendees and seeing them become our newest Pioneers.”
