Research at UT Arlington
We seek out the untested boundaries of knowledge with research centers in every discipline. The Center for Innovation at Arlington partners with local businesses to commercialize discoveries. Our Center for Bilingual and ESL Education finds the best ways to educate across cultural divides. Our Amphibian and Reptile Diversity Research Center illuminates creatures like the rarely seen Mexican mole lizard. And those are just a few examples.
Our efforts have earned us the classification as a Research University/High Activity, according to the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching; our federal funding for research has grown 69 percent since 2001.
