The University of Texas at Dallas Reviews

"I loved UTD and it was a phenomenal value! I actually have 3 degrees from UTD, a BA (1996), MBA(2000) and the PhD(2011). I worked as a TA for a year there also. It was a memorable, enriching experience and I just loved every minute of it. It is considered a great school nationally with excellent professors as well."

"UTD is a great school. The most important aspect about UTD is that you get back what you put into it. In other words, please don't expect opportunities to come to you without any effort. That being said, if you put in average effort and hardwork, you will be rewarded. UTD's Finance department have very helpful and friendly professor who take a genuine interest in the student's welfare. Don't be afraid to go talk. Dallas is a great place with many industries to seek job opportunities. Overall, good value for money . This school is gaining in reputation year by year. If you are not aiming at a 'target university' UTD is a good investment worth your time and money!"

"Great school for interdisciplinary majors. People who have interest and expertise in multiple areas. Great school to bring different academic elements together. I graduated my under grad from UNT and chose to be at UTD because of excellent faculty."

"I have been very pleased with my time spent at The University of Texas at Dallas. Not only is there a growing network of alumni, but the students that UTD produces are of the highest caliber in each of their respective fields. As the school continues to grow so does the respect for it and the recognition of the excellent students that graduate from there."

"The University of Texas at El Paso is a great place in which to complete a degree. Not only are many professors helpful and available to assist their students, but you are also encourage to make a difference. At UTEP you are exposed to a diversity of students in a mostly populated Mexican-American region, considering that it is located on the Border between the United States and Mexico. Students and staff are welcoming to the Miners family. Go Miners!"

"UTD is a great place for an education. With growing programs and student body activities, there truly is something for everyone. My program was amazing. One of the best out there. You will not regret going to UTD!"

"The University of Texas at Austin is a fine school. It has a beautiful and expansive campus. The professors are some of the best in the country."

"Has a great scope for learning , very friendly professors who help the students all the time"

"Great school with great professors and large variety of classes available. It is located in a safe, new development area of Dallas. Campus continues to grow. Recommend visiting the campus. You will be surprised! Students focus on gaining good education & not on sports."

"Good school, growing. Policy school was clearly less of a priority for the University, but school itself doesn't seem to suffer. Very knowledgeable professors, but there is a focus on quantitative methods."

"i have chosen masters in supply chain management for grad program,it is one of the best schools for this program, it stands in 23rd best in the world."

"It provides a safe ground for students to connect with professionals in the industry they are interested in. Sometimes, the safe ground is a little too safe and not as aggressive as in the real world."

"Ranking in top 35 of MBA schools in the US by US News and World Report, the Naveen Jindal School of Management at the University of Texas at Dallas is one of the best values in the country. Along with an MBA, I will be earning a MS in Supply Chain Management. This school is ranked number 2 in the nation for this discipline. Due to tuition being set using tiers, one can achieve an MBA for around $40,000. Set in Richardson, the University of Texas at Dallas has a beautiful campus with everything reachable by walking. The campus also has various areas to spend nice Texas days outside to study or have group meetings. The professors and teaching assistants are what make this campus awesome. They are very willing to help you succeed in class and beyond. I have had a couple of instances when I email them and I receive replies within a couple of hours. Living in the Dallas metroplex can be difficult with commuters. This is what I see as the only con. For me to reach class on time, I must travel on toll roads after work, but on my way home, I can skip these."

"University of Texas at Dallas offers one of the best Grad Programs in Communication Disorders and I am very fortunate to be a part of it. The academics are challenging for students and helps them become the best speech pathologists. The staff and all the faculty members are easy to approach and they go above and beyond in making sure that they help each student in the best way possible. Great program and great school."

"The best part of my graduate program is that it gives me many options to explore I'm trying to specialize in a branch of Speech-Language Pathology. There are countless resources at my fingertips and the staff truly want the best for me and my future. I like that the bilingual program is inclusive rather than exclusive, and the students studying alongside me are like that as well!"

"Based on the Pros's Naveen Jindal school of management supply chain program is great, the professors are approachable and they make sure the students understand. There are also different tools available to help the students career advancement. I have not observed any cons in the graduate program."

"The classes are relatively small compared to undergraduate. This is definitely a pro because you bond with the other students and can have better and more frequent interaction with the professors. Even though the classes are small, there is definitely diversity of backgrounds in these classes. This brings a great wealth of information that is in addition to the actual academic value -- not to mention developing long-time friendships. I honestly can't think of a con to this school."

"UTD was a fantastic school for me. I went to a couple other institutions before going to UTD, which had been right in my backyard all along. You won't find the cultish college pride you get at UT Austin or A&M, but that mindset isn't for everyone. It wasn't for me. UTD is a lovely campus, and they are expanding more every year. The faculty in Behavioral & Brain Sciences is phenomenal. I took a course called "Careers in Psychology" that served as a catalyst for me to enquire about being an undergraduate volunteer researcher in a lab. This was one of the best experiences I've ever had. This ended up getting me a summer research position at the university, and the summer position (coupled with work I did with the elderly) led me to become a clinical research coordinator at a prestigious university when I moved out of country. My husband also had a positive experience starting in high school as a Nano Explorer at the Nano Tech Institute. He stayed with Nano Tech through undergrad and a masters, and he is now a PhD student out of country. We may go abroad again for his post doctoral fellowship in the next couple years. The people at UTD can get you wherever you want to go, even if you don't know where that is yet. Take advantage of internships, labs that take undergraduates for volunteer research, any opportunity you can to help supplement your degree with experience - something to put on a resume. UTD is diverse. There are opportunities to meet people from many walks of life. After experiencing places that weren't right for me, UTD felt like home."

"UTD is a young, growing university with lots of cool stuff going on. It's much more focused on science and technology than fine arts, but there are a handful of really great literature professors, particularly Southern lit. And lots of scholarships!"

"The school of management at UT Dallas is really a great school since it offers a lot of flexibility in terms of choosing coursework."
