Become a Maverick Scientist
In the College of Science, our students are pushing the boundaries of what’s possible — for themselves and for the world. Maverick Scientists innovate, they discover and they learn. In the College of Science they acquire the knowledge and training they need to become leaders in whatever fields they enter. We have almost 4,000 students in six departments – Biology, Chemistry & Biochemistry, Earth & Environmental Sciences, Mathematics, Physics, and Psychology, in addition to health professions and a multi-disciplinary program in Data Science.
Our students learn from world-class faculty and utilize state-of-the-art facilities while acquiring the knowledge and in-demand skills they need when they enter the workforce. Maverick Scientists gain valuable experience in collaborative research and graduate well-equipped to take on the many important problems facing our world today.

UTA SCIENCE VIRTUAL TOUR
There's nothing like experiencing UTA for yourself, in real life on a campus visit - the sights, the sounds ... the feel of the breeze as you walk down the tree lined mall and the smell of fresh roasted coffee from Einstein's while a fountain gushes gently in the distance ... ok, sorry about that, got carried away just thinking about it. The next best thing, however, is clicking through our virtual tour below.
