Campus Construction
As you drive through campus you can see so much happening with our expansion of facilities. The SEIR building on the south side will open in Fall 2018 as will the Residence Hall and Dining/Student Activities Complex on West Campus, while the 1500 slot parking garage will open this fall. Our facilities staff are also working diligently to maintain, renovate, and modernize our existing buildings to ensure the best possible environment for working and learning.
Student Success & Competition
Our student-athletes continue to excel in individual and team competitions. The Movin’ Mavs won their eighth Men’s Wheelchair Basketball Championship, our cheerleading squad won the National Championship for the 4th year in a row and our ESports team won the Heroes of the Dorm National Championship. In the class or on the fields of competition our students are setting new records and surpassing others.
Even as the nation debates the future of higher education and its value, your efforts are propelling UTA steadily forward as an institution of IDEAS – innovative, diverse, focused on bridging excellence and access at affordable cost, and ensuring student success. Your efforts continue to accelerate our progress towards being the model 21st Century Urban Research University, setting standards for others to follow.
I am deeply grateful to each of you for the extraordinary efforts you make on behalf of our students and the institution. I am honored to be a part of such a talented and dedicated community and want to thank each of you for the hard work, commitment, and dedication that has not only resulted in such a successful semester and academic year, but that continues to propel UTA into ever higher levels of excellence.
Thank you for all you do. I hope all of you will join me on May 30th for our Faculty and Staff Appreciation Celebration to mark the successes of the 2016-2017 year.
