Study in Chattanooga, United States

If you are a nature lover, you may want to live or study in a place surrounded by green mountains and ridges like Chattanooga City in the state of Tennessee. Occupying a downtown elevation of 210 meters (680 ft), it is Tennessee’s 4^th largest city with a population of 167,674 and, according to Forbes magazine, is the 8^th among 100 largest metro areas in the United States. Many Americans agree that Chattanooga is the best city in Hamilton County on the basis of its amenities and facilities for education, including the government-funded primary and secondary education. Numerous public schools operate in Chattanooga under the responsibility of the Hamilton County School System, except for private and parochial schools including the so-called magnet schools, which are run by non-government organizations.

Chattanooga has nine higher educational institutions and various programs of study to offer the students. Foremost of these colleges is the University of Tennessee System’s Chattanooga campus that has a student population of over 10,000. Then you can find the Tennessee Temple University, which is a Baptist institution, the Virginia College of Business and Health, the University of Phoenix-Chattanooga, ITT Technical Institute-Chattanooga, the Chattanooga College, and the Chattanooga State Community College with a yearly enrolment of about 8,000 to 11,000 students.

Providing support to these institutions are magnet schools or public schools with specialized courses that are operated by the government and focused on science, technology, engineering, arts, mathematics and medicine (STEAMM).
