UTC International Travel Policy:

UTC requres all faculty, staff and students traveling abroad on University of Tennessee at Chattanooga funded programs (including research, independent study, travel to conferences and seminars, athletic events, and other university-related business) to register with the Center for Global Education prior to their departure. Please click follow the following link to begin the registration process.  As you register, the program will ask you to provide information about your travel plans and contact information in the destination country(ies). You  will need to include hotel and/or personal addresses, telephone numbers, email address, and emergency contact information. Such information is necessary if emergencies arise either in the US or in the country(ies) of residence.

UTC faculty, staff, and students are required to register their travel plans/destination with the United States Embassy at: https://travelregistration.state.gov/.  In the event that issues affecting the safety of US citizens unexpectedly arise, the US Embassy needs up-to-date contact information for visitors in order to disseminate safety information, evacuation orders or other updated travel warnings. 

Please remember that UTC funds may not be used to sponsor travel to any destination where this is an active US Department of State Travel Warning without appropriate approval from the Provost or the Chancellor.
