"This graduate programs offers a variety of courses in the arts and technology field and provides a place to truly discover your passion. I have enjoyed learning from these professors over the past semester. Though not all courses are offered every semester, I find that I am able to take courses that are beneficial and interesting without feeling hindered by the missing classes."

"UTD is a wonderful technology and science school and I know they have invested the best in their programs. While biomedical engineering is still growing, UTD has done more to help it grow by providing the right teachers and the best materials for their students to succeed. There are plenty of networking opportunities as well as tailored internship programs for students so there are a lot of pros to attending this school. The main con to my graduate program is the lack of evening and afternoon classes. I work full-time and am a commuting student so I feel that I have to work extra hard to get the classes I need at times I can attend them. I also feel like I miss out on classes that tailor to my future career due to the times they are available."

"The academic curriculum of the MS ITM program is flexible and one of the best when compared to any other university. They offer four different tracks and students can mix and choose subjects based on their interests. The ERP track is good, and subjects give a fair knowledge on SAP fundamentals."

"UT Dallas has a top ranked program for communication disorders. The best part about the program is that there are 2 callier centers at UTD which put on several different communication disorders programs Students at UTD have a wide variety of practicum experiences available to them. The main con of the program is that the main location is in downtown Dallas. It can take students more than an hour to get to school in the morning due to all the construction and traffic."

"I am a international student, and I am very happy to study in America, but when I got here, I found that this campus is full of diversity international student, and I just feel I was at my home country. Nevertheless, the professors and all other faculties are very responsible and intelegent. I had taken three classes this semester. They are all very nice people in life and very skillful professor in class. I have a great time with them, I already got an A, and I am confidence that I can get the other 2 A!"

  • Degree: History
"The Masters program for History at University of Texas at Dallas is an enjoyable, diverse program with a lot of knowledgeable professors in diverse fields. The only unfortunate downfall in my opinion is the lack of organization and financial aid as they do not have a department chair and sometimes have problems of having enough classes for all the history students to take."

"The school is small so you definitely get that one on one attention with your professors which is a great benefit. Since the school is very academic driven I wish they would extend their library hours and offer more on campus resources such as more restaurants to eat at."

"I like the life in UTD. The beautiful scenery and friendly faculty bring me a lot of happiness. It was my first year in UTD, I'm not sure if the education quality was as high as it said, but I like the atmosphere in every class. One little disappointment, sometimes it is really inconvenient for students who live in somewhere off campus."

"I am a student from JSOM of UTD. Most of the teachers in our campus is great and responsible. The staffs are friendly and if you are a new student, especially you are a international student, you will be taken good care of. Also the environment here is helpful for you to think about your future, the advisors will help you and there are a lot of career fair allow you to see what you are lack and make your picture of future more clear. After four months study here, I know much better what I want and I would like to study. Overall, Utd is good university and the more important thing is that it is becoming better!"

"Pros: Great campus, amazing diversity, cool events and give away's, awesome library, on campus food and drink facilities. We have some interesting student organizations that put a lot of effort to ensure students have a great time doing extra curricular activities. We get some amazing student support from the career management center as well. I also like the Leadership Certificate offered by one of the Student organizations, it helped increase my awareness of self.We have well respected and qualified faculty members who are very approachable and make learning interesting. Last but not the least, UTD has an awesome campus which is well maintained and watched by the university police. I like that care about the environment and do their bit in every way to protect it. Infrastructure wise too, UTD rocks! I enjoy being on campus and moving among different buildings; each of which has an appeal and charm of its own. Cons: I feel studying at UTD can be a costly affair for international students. Thankfully there is scholarship opportunities however it covers only an year. For transport, UTD has its comet cruiser but it does not always match with the dart bus timings; so If you don't stay on the comet cruiser route it does not make a lot of sense to have a UTD bus since you end up wasting an hour for crossing a couple of miles. If you are an international student it may take you one test to figure out how to translate the wonderful classroom learning's into A grade that you desire. The way of teaching is great but the way of testing is different here and you are taken aback sometimes since they don't always given you same difficulty questions int he classroom."
