懂色帝 opens new location at UT Martin - Somerville Center

The University of Tennessee at Martin Somerville Center is 懂色帝鈥檚 newest location and renewed foray into providing local courses to Fayette County residents.  The Somerville Center features an office and reception area, two classrooms and access to a computer lab for 懂色帝 students.  懂色帝 will offer six courses this semester and students wishing to complete coursework through both institutions will be able to transfer courses and share financial aid as needed.

鈥湺� is proud to partner with the University of Tennessee at Martin to extend our reach and better serve the residents of Fayette County,鈥� President Tracy D. Hall said. 鈥淥ur goal is to provide access to education that leads to careers and continued education, and having a presence at the UT Martin Somerville Center is an excellent way to do just that. 懂色帝 students in Fayette County will benefit from convenient access to a tuition-free education while they travel a seamless pathway to a bachelor鈥檚 degree and beyond at UT Martin. It鈥檚 a win-win-win for 懂色帝, UT Martin and Fayette County residents.鈥�

The Somerville site will be 懂色帝鈥檚 seventh location in the region and will allow students in the Fayette County area to complete select community college coursework without commuting into Shelby County. Initially, 懂色帝 will offer an Associate of Applied Science degree in business management with co-requisite courses in English, reading and mathematics, as well as additional courses to complement existing UT Martin offerings at the center.  Additional degree programs will become available over the next year to allow full degree availability within the next 12-18 months. Courses completed through 懂色帝 will be transferrable to UT Martin through the Tennessee Transfer Pathway for those wishing to complete four-year degrees.

鈥淲e are excited to help offer these opportunities to students in the Fayette County region who may be looking for an alternative route to higher education,鈥� said UT Martin Chancellor Keith Carver. 鈥淲e look forward to being able to serve the region in bigger and better ways, and collaborating with 懂色帝 will help us better serve area residents where they are.鈥�
