Schools of Instruction
The University of Tennessee Southern curriculum is organized in six academic Schools within which are majors, minors, concentrations, certificates, licensure areas, and additional course offerings.
Each School has its own faculty and executes its own particular functions; however, the faculties of the various Schools join together philosophically in the idea of service to the higher purposes of the University. As maximum integration and unity are achieved, inter-divisional cooperation becomes an essential part of the total academic program.
