New kid on the block:  A concept drawing shows how the six-story Science, Engineering Innovation and Research Building would look from the south. The building will be across South Nedderman Drive from the Life Science Building and close to Pickard Hall.

Science, Engineering Innovation and Research Building to accelerate health science exploration

UT Arlington is advancing plans for a new six-story Science, Engineering Innovation and Research Building to help meet increasing student demand and to further the University’s emerging concentration in health science initiatives.

The 200,000-square-foot building will feature a structural steel and glass atrium. It will be located southwest of Pickard Hall, home of the College of Nursing and Health Innovation, and south of the existing Life Science Building.

The SEIR Building will include large multi-use collaborative spaces, large classrooms and lecture halls, and innovative research and teaching labs.

State lawmakers approved $70 million in Tuition Revenue Bonds to support the project earlier this year, and the UT System Regents approved $20 million for the building last week. Work on the project is expected to begin in 2016 with completion in 2018.

Read more about the Science, Engineering Innovation and Research Building and the UT System funding.

Healthy degree: Dr. David Keller, right, associate professor and chair of kinesiology, works with students in his research laboratory. Keller also is associate dean of the College of Nursing and Health Innovation.

UT Arlington to offer new Ph.D. program in kinesiology

UT Arlington will soon welcome doctoral students into a new kinesiology program designed to elevate the excellence of the institution’s research in physiology, movement science, healthy living, and other health science disciplines. 

The UT System Board of Regents’ Academic Affairs Committee authorized UT Arlington to establish a new Doctor of Philosophy degree program in kinesiology at the College of Nursing and Health Innovation. The proposal will be submitted to the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board for review and appropriate action. The first students will be enrolled in 2016.

Students will specialize in one of three areas: movement and rehabilitation sciences; applied physiology; or physical education. Interdisciplinary coursework will be a foundational element of the curriculum as well.

No decals needed with new parking permits

UT Arlington’s virtual parking management system, MAVPark, is an online service that allows students, faculty, staff, and visitors to purchase parking permits, manage payments for campus parking meters, and review and pay parking citations—all without standing in line.

The system increases efficiency for customers and eliminates the need for parking decals and paper citations. MAVPark uses vehicle-mounted license plate readers to identify license plate numbers of parked vehicles for comparison against the virtual database of permitted vehicles.

To purchase a parking permit, visit uta.edu/MAVPark and click on Obtain a Permit under the big blue P. Student parking permits are $165 for the 2015-16 academic year.

Users may enter up to three license plates in the system, which provides greater flexibility for those who may drive more than one vehicle to campus. Permits allow only one registered vehicle to park on campus under a single permit at any time.

Beginning Tuesday, Sept. 1, e-citations may be issued for unpermitted vehicles parked on campus. The person to whom the vehicle is registered with the state will be notified by email or by mail.

Read more about MAVPark. Read more about the 2015-16 parking permits and regulations.

Scam using Texas Tuition Promise name, asking victims to forward cash

The Office of the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts says students should be aware of a fraudulent check scam in which criminals are using the name Texas Tuition Promise Fund to defraud the public.

Intended victims—usually students—will receive a check in the mail identifying the Texas Tuition Promise Fund as the payer. The checks may appear to have been issued from a SunTrust Bank account, but are, in fact, fraudulent. Shortly thereafter, the intended victim will be contacted via email and asked to deposit the check in their bank account, withdraw an additional sum, and forward the cash to another person.

The Texas Tuition Promise Fund is in no way involved in this fraud. No person legitimately representing the Texas Tuition Promise Fund would ever request that a payee forward funds to anyone.

The Office of the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts in conjunction with NorthStar Financial Services Group, LLC (the fund administrator) has contacted SunTrust Bank and notified the proper authorities of this fraud.

If you receive an unexpected check from the Texas Tuition Promise Fund and are asked in turn to send money to someone else, contact NorthStar Financial Services Group, LLC at 1-877-826-9777.

If you or anyone you know has been a victim of this crime or information related to it, call the UT Arlington Police Department at 817-272-3381.

Meningitis vaccination documentation required

All new students and those not enrolled in the spring or summer terms will not be able to register for fall sessions until they file proof of meningitis vaccination.

You must have received the vaccine within the past five years and no later than the first day of your first session at UT Arlington. Students who fail to meet this requirement will be dropped from courses.
