2. The Andrew F. Brimmer College of Business and Information Science
3. The College of Engineering

The University is accredited by the Commission on Colleges of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS); and the following programs are accredited by national agencies: Architecture, Business, Education, Engineering, Clinical Laboratory Sciences, Nursing, Occupational Therapy, Social Work, and Veterinary Medicine. Of special note is the fact that Tuskegee University is the only independent, historically black university with four engineering programs that are nationally accredited by the Accreditation Board of Engineering and Technology (ABET), the major accrediting body for the engineering sciences.

Tuskegee University's Chemistry program is also one of only a few among Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU's) that is approved by the American Chemical Society.
