Wade Tosh put his UT education to work before he even finished it. Tosh was chosen as the new town administrator of Dover, Tennessee, by the Dover Board of Mayor and Aldermen in September 2007, 4 months before he finished his Master of Public Administration degree at UT Knoxville. Tosh had a leg up on a local government career thanks to a distinctive new on-the-job experience: he was the first Gary H. Hensley Municipal Managers Intern during the summer of 2007.
The UT Institute for Public Service serves as a conduit for the knowledge of UT faculty members and consultants and puts that knowledge to use solving real-world problems. Through its four agencies, IPS provides training and technical assistance to state and local government leaders, law enforcement personnel, and industry innovators.
