The University of Tennessee, Knoxville, has been recognized as one of America’s best employers for new graduates by Forbes magazine. UT ranked third among businesses with headquarters in Tennessee; third in the Southeastern Conference; and 10th among higher education institutions.
“I am so proud of the regional and national recognition UT has earned in the past years by Forbes,” said Mary Lucal, associate vice chancellor for human resources. “Our competitive benefits, emphasis on flexibility, and commitment to principles of diversity and inclusion make us a great work home for recent grads, and we are thrilled that so many have made the conscious decision to work at UT Knoxville!”
