The University of Tennessee System today announced that Chancellor Lori\u202fMann Bruce of the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga has been appointed to the Board of Governors of UT\u2011Battelle, the nonprofit partnership that has managed and operated the U.S. Department of Energy\u2019s Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) since 2000. UT\u2011Battelle is jointly owned by the University of Tennessee and Battelle Memorial Institute.<\/p>\n

Dr. Bruce, appointed as UTC\u2019s 19th chancellor effective June\u202f30,\u202f2025, brings nearly three decades of leadership experience in academic affairs, research growth and strategic planning. As provost at Tennessee Technological University, she significantly expanded research funding from $16 million to more than $46 million and launched major infrastructure and faculty development initiatives.<\/p>\n

Her appointment to the UT\u2011Battelle Board of Governors adds her voice to the leadership overseeing one of the nation\u2019s premier research institutions. UT\u2011Battelle plays a central role in advancing U.S. scientific leadership, fostering partnerships with UT System campuses, and supporting science education outreach \u2014 including millions of dollars in contributions to local schools and institutions.<\/p>\n

\u201cOak Ridge National Laboratory is a cornerstone of American innovation, and I am honored to support its mission,\u201d Bruce said. \u201cServing on the UT-Battelle Board of Governors is an opportunity to strengthen the connections between world-class research and real-world impact. I\u2019m especially excited about what this means for our students \u2014 and to open new pathways to discovery, education and service to Tennessee and the nation.\u201d<\/p>\n

Chancellor Bruce\u2019s new board role aligns with UT-Battelle\u2019s mission to integrate academic, research and community engagement across Tennessee. As a UTC chancellor committed to innovation and excellence, she is well\u2011positioned to help guide the organization\u2019s impact in education, research and service.<\/p>\n

\u201cDr. Bruce brings a distinguished record of academic leadership and scientific achievement to the board,\u201d UT System President Randy Boyd said. \u201cHer expertise in research and innovation will be an asset as we continue to support the critical work taking place at ORNL.\u201d<\/p>\n

Chancellor Bruce joins a distinguished board responsible for governance, strategic oversight and long\u2011term planning of ORNL operations in partnership with the UT System and Battelle.<\/p>\n

Her appointment underscores the UT System\u2019s commitment to elevating research collaboration and educational opportunities across its campuses\u2014and further strengthens the alignment between UTC\u2019s mission and ORNL\u2019s statewide science priorities.<\/p>\n
