Because of its success, UNT is a nationally recognized university with programs that are among the very best, including a number of graduate programs that U.S. News & World Report ranks in the top 20. Known for its comprehensiveness, UNT makes room for artists, engineers, teachers and everything in between. Taught by faculty who push boundaries, UNT students are instilled with the passion to discover and the knowledge to act. To become a university of tomorrow, UNT is furthering its impact in science, engineering and nanotechnology while building on its foundation in the arts, education and business.
