UTIG HEADQUARTERS
UTIG is housed within the newly renovated Masters Investment Learning Center (MILC), within the Haslam College of Business. It is the all-glass room with large TV screens visible from the atrium on the 2nd floor, near K Brew Coffee and closest to the Pedestrian Walkway entrance. Students may enter the center whenever the privacy glass is transparent—simply push the main door to access. Feel free to stop by during regular business hours with any questions.
