Become A Difference-Maker at MTSU

Being a teacher is one of the most important jobs in the world because you get to help shape the minds of children who may become the leaders of tomorrow. Founded as a teacher's college in 1911, Middle Tennessee State University takes pride in our commitment to empowering students with tools and skills to make a life-changing impact in children's lives, and is the #1 producer of teachers in the greater Nashville area. Our success wouldn't be possible without the passionate, caring students and faculty members who are driven to promote growth in education and watch young people learn and grow. That's what being a "difference-maker" means to us.
