Statement of Purpose:
The Greeneville/Greene County Center for Higher Education serves as an extension
of the main campus in Morristown offering both credit and non-credit courses to
the citizens of Greeneville, Greene County and portions of upper East Tennessee.
The Center allows students who are geographically remote from the main campus to
take classes closer to their homes.
The Center is located at 215 North College Street in downtown Greeneville.
Course offerings include most courses in the General Education core and
additional technical education courses for various degree and certificate
programs. The facility was made available through the generous efforts of the
governments of Greene County and the City of Greeneville, along with the Walters
State Foundation.
The facility includes eight smart classrooms with the latest technology, general
education classrooms, distance education learning opportunities, five computer
labs, chemistry, biology and micro laboratories, student lounge areas, media
center, and administrative offices for student services. In addition, the Center
is home to the East Tennessee Law Enforcement Academy, Respiratory Care and
Nursing programs. These programs serve the entire ten county service area. East
Tennessee State University offers classes in the Walters State facility.
Approximately 1000 credit students are enrolled at the Center each semester. Thirty three
faculty/staff members are located at the Center with additional faculty
traveling from Morristown to the Center. Additionally, over 30 adjunct faculty
teach at the Center each semester. The main telephone number is 423-798-7940.
Divisions of the
Community &
Economic Development
and
WIA/Center for Workforce Development are also located at the Center.
