Middle Tennessee State University, situated at the geographic center of the state in Murfreesboro, is a comprehensive university that embraces its role as a preferred destination for Tennessee undergraduates while expanding its reach nationally and internationally through signature programs and select master’s and doctoral programs.

The University generates, preserves, and disseminates knowledge and innovation and uses scholarship to enhance teaching and public service. The University is committed to preparing students to thrive in their chosen professions and a changing global society.

With an enrollment of more than 20,000 students, it is the No. 1 producer of graduates for the Greater Nashville economy, has been named to The Princeton Review's list of the Best 388 Colleges in the U.S. four years in a row, and is also the top destination for transfer students in Tennessee.

We want you to have a great experience at MTSU. However, we recognize that our goal is to create ready-to-work graduates who enter their careers prepared to succeed.

Our student success initiative makes sure that you have access to free tutoring, regular and consistent advising, career training and assessments, and supplemental instruction- ensuring that you have a place to go when you need help.

Many of our programs are developed with industry partners to ensure that our curriculum fits the needs of the job market and provides our students with experiential learning opportunities beyond the classroom. 

Students often participate in internships to gain hands-on experience which often results in job offers from those same companies. One in six college graduates in greater Nashville holds an MTSU degree, making us the No. 1 provider to the region’s workforce with more than 70,000 alumni living in the region.
