Alumni Awards
Each year, we have the pleasure of honoring outstanding alumni in four categories. These alumni from across the state, nation, and world bring recognition and honor to Tennessee’s flagship campus in Knoxville. A committee made up of members of the Alumni Board of Directors are responsible for the review and selection of the alumni awards.
We will celebrate our next class of winners in 2027. Nominations will open in late 2026.
