The FBI Nashville Field Office – Memphis Resident Agency, which covers west Tennessee, is excited to partner with The University of Memphis (UofM) on an FBI Collegiate Academy in the 2026-27 school year.

The FBI will outline investigative priorities, explore the various career opportunities within the FBI, develop real-world resume and interview skills, and take an inside look at how Evidence Response Teams process evidence.
