The University of Tennessee, Knoxville has joined with the Undergraduate Awards to promote opportunities for recognition to UT students. The Undergraduate Awards is the world’s only pan disciplinary academic awards program. Students submit work online and it is judged by a panel of Irish and International judges. The winners are brought to Ireland for a 4-day Global Summit, published in The Undergraduate Journal and recognized as the best in their field.

Students are recognized as the best and most innovative in their field – a significant catalyst when pursuing further studies or their chosen career. UT students (Class of 2014, 2015, or 2016) can submit up to 3 different already completed papers/projects across 25 categories, including visual art, anytime before May 29. Apply now!

Classes of 2016, 2017 and 2018: Will you be conducting research off-campus this summer as part of an internship, co-op, or other scholarship opportunity? If so, let us know! We want to include you in our back to school research event - Discovery Day! Let us know what you'll be doing, we can't wait to hear about it.

Students graduating in fall 2015 are also eligible to participate in Discovery Day!
