- Mission
- For 120 years, the University of North Texas has helped shape the knowledge, economy and workforce of Texas and the nation. UNT today is a student-centered emerging research university, offering a breadth of disciplines from engineering to visual arts in 12 schools and colleges. Backed by growing peer recognitions, UNT is seeking to take its place among the premier universities. In fall 2009, US News & World Report named UNT as one of the top national universities that are ???leading the pack??? in innovative changes, and UNT was the only Texas public university on the list. The university also has been named one of America's 100 Best College Buys?? for 14 consecutive years and is continually listed by The Princeton Review as a "Best in the West" college. The university has made strategic investments in students, faculty, programs and infrastructure to become one of the top tier research institutions while growing its legacy in the arts, education and music. All the while, UNT continues to excel in the two-fold mission of enrolling and graduating students. The university now ranks first in the state for the increased number of degrees awarded, third for enrollment growth and 46th nationally for the number of degrees awarded to ethnic minority students. UNT also is a top draw for transfer students, leading the state and ranking fourth nationally among public universities for its transfer student enrollment. UNT is the choice of more than 36,000 students, making it Texas' fourth largest university. It's also one of the most comprehensive universities in North Texas, offering 97 bachelor's, 101 master's and 48 doctoral degree programs that attract high-quality students. Average SAT scores of UNT freshmen are higher than the state and national averages. UNT provides an education powered by critical thinking, distinguished by innovation, enhanced with opportunity and sustained by academic and personal support. Award-winning faculty members unleash students' potential while advisors and mentors keep them on track and moving forward. And UNT's global-minded education can take students to another country to study and bring the world to them through lectures, performances and a vibrant international community. Because of this strong foundation, the more than 7,000 students who graduate each year are armed with knowledge and experience, joining the more than 326,000 alumni who already are transforming the world.
