About TTU

Faculty

Tennessee Tech is known for the strong, productive relationships between students and faculty. With a student/faculty ratio of 18:1, TTU maintains small classes averaging 26 students. Accessibility to professors is reinforced through regular, weekly office hours, and many also offer online access. The university employs approximately 370 full-time and 130 part-time instructional faculty members. More than 75 percent of the full-time faculty hold doctorates.

Our professors serve as media experts on topics as varied as their specialties. We have experts on terrorism, Legionnaire's disease and fuel cells, just to name a few.

Faculty members have the support of the Institute of Technological Scholarship, an in-house training program to keep them up-to-date on the latest technology and web tools. The Institute ensures that faculty of all disciplines have access and training that keeps the university truly "technological."

Tennessee Tech professors regularly receive Fulbright awards for teaching and research in other parts of the world; others annually deliver invited lectures and addresses internationally. Evidence of peer recognition, a growing number of faculty have served as presidents and in other key positions of national professional and research organizations.
