University Of North Texas At Dallas

The University of North Texas at Dallas (UNT Dallas) is the only regionally accredited, public university in the City of Dallas. UNT-Dallas is rapidly becoming a university of first choice as a result of the personal involvement of faculty, student support resources, affordability, location, and the relevancy of programs and degrees to career offerings in the region. Record enrollment for Spring 2015 exceeded 2,600 students. The university offers 16 undergraduate and six graduate degree programs in high-demand fields including criminal justice, teacher education, business, sociology, and counseling. There are three academic schools: School of Business and Professional Leadership; School of Education and Human Services; and, the School of Liberal Arts and Sciences. UNT-Dallas has a diverse student population (35 percent Hispanic, 33 percent African-American, and 27 percent white) including first time freshmen, transfer students, veterans and graduate students. The experiential learning opportunities provided by UNT-Dallas are perfectly suited for first generation and continuing education students seeking the degrees and experience needed to pursue high demand career opportunities in the Northeast Texas region and beyond. The campus spans 264 acres in southern Dallas and is located on University Hills Boulevard, north of Interstate 20 (Exit 468) between Interstates 35 and 45. In 2016 the Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) blue line will terminate near the campus effectively linking the university to all of DART’s service area in Dallas.
