NCBI at UT Knoxville

The University of Tennessee, Knoxville, became a campus affiliate in February 2020. The UT NCBI team is made up of a dedicated group of individuals who commit to making a difference in our community. This group of volunteers facilitates workshops that are free, voluntary, and available to all students, faculty, and staff upon request. Our team is made possible through the hard work and dedication of the Division of Student Life and the Division of Access and Engagement.
