College Scholars Program

The College Scholars Program is an interdisciplinary honors program in the College of Arts and Sciences. Our program exists solely for highly motivated and academically talented students who have clear goals for their undergraduate education, and who cannot attain those goals within the traditional requirements structure of the College.

The goals of this website are to provide prospective applicants with information about the College Scholars Program, to share good news about the program with alumni and friends, and to provide useful information and documents for Scholars who may be temporarily unable to connect with the private electronic community that serves the current group of Scholars.

“As a public health nutrition advocate, the College Scholars Program at the University of Tennessee greatly enhanced my educational, professional, and personal journey to be where I am today.”

My program, Nutritional Advocacy in the Healthcare System, combines pre-medical coursework with studies in nutritional science, public health, research, and persuasive health communication. The goal of my program is to better understand the role nutrition plays in chronic disease prevention and patient care while exploring current gaps in nutritional education within healthcare systems. Through this interdisciplinary approach, I hope to develop both the scientific knowledge and advocacy skills necessary to promote more holistic and preventative approaches to medicine.
