Haslam Scholars Projects

Haslam Scholars Projects

The Haslam Scholars Program was founded in 2008 by a generous gift from Jimmy and Dee Haslam and Jim and Natalie Haslam. Since that time, the program has flourished into a unique in-depth leadership development program for top students at the University of Tennessee. In addition to these independent faculty-mentored projects, the program includes an exclusive leadership curriculum, access to top UT faculty, a collaborative education abroad experience, a summer internship, and a group capstone. Haslam Scholars serve as high-profile undergraduate leaders whose lofty academic ambitions match those of the program and the institution.
