 Program Overview   study in america

Virtual Tour The University of Texas at Dallas (UTD) School of Management (SOM) offers Bachelor of Science (BS) degrees in business administration, accounting, and finance. Partnered with the business community, UTD programs provide a management education that recognizes changing technology and industry movements toward a global focus. Students learn theories and analytical techniques that apply to practical areas of finance and marketing. They also explore the social and political factors that affect international trade. UTD bachelor's programs typically take four years to complete and require a total of 120 credit hours. Each semester, students take a total of five classes worth three credits each.
   The AACSB International accredited business administration program emphasizes the problem-solving techniques most commonly used by modern businesses. Concentrations are offered in finance and management information systems. Finance classes combine economics, accounting and aspects of risk and return. Course topics include corporate finance, money and capital markets, and investment management. The management information systems concentration looks at the analysis and design of business processes. Courses focus on database fundamentals and data structures, systems analysis and design, and business data communications. A business administration/biology double major is available to students wishing to specialize in health care management. The program explores new and efficient managing strategies within the industry.
   The AACSB International accredited accounting program consists of 66 lower-division and 54 upper-division credits. Courses balance concepts with practical knowledge and expose students to other related fields. When combined with the Master of Science (MS) in accounting program, students meet the 160-semester-hour educational requirement needed to sit for the Uniform Certified Public Accountant Examination.
   A fast-track program exists for students wishing to begin their master's degree before graduation. Participants pursuing a master of business administration (MBA) degree can take up to 12 credit hours toward their graduate degree during their senior year. Students wishing to pursue an MS in accounting may take up to six credit hours. In order to qualify for the fast-track program students must have an overall GPA of 3.0 and approval from their adviser.

 University and Location   study in america

The founders of Texas Instruments established The University of Texas at Dallas (UTD) in 1969 as an institution for research and development. The university campus covers approximately 500 acres and is surrounded by over 600 telecommunications and advanced technology firms. Undergraduate and graduate degrees are offered by seven schools, of which the School of Management is the largest. Almost 30% of the University's 14,000-plus students train in management studies.
   Student involvement is highlighted by the numerous organizations, team sports, theater and music events active on campus. Student clubs exist for academic and honors groups, service organizations, religious affiliations, ethnic backgrounds and special interest groups. The student newspaper, published twice a month, keeps the campus community informed on topics important to the University. UTD is a member of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division III, fielding varsity teams in men's and women's soccer, basketball, golf, tennis, cross country running, men's baseball and women's softball and volleyball. Recreational sports such as volleyball, hockey, rugby and flag football are also enjoyed on campus.
   UTD is located in the city of Richardson, 18 miles north of downtown Dallas. Richardson was chartered in 1873, about 30 years after the first settlers arrived from Tennessee and Kentucky. Today the city has a population of more than 99,536 and is home to many technology companies. Richardson is culturally rich: students can take in live music and theater performances and visit art galleries and museums. The city's 29 parks and trails are ideal for picnics and walking. The climate remains temperate throughout much of the year with mild winters and warm summers. Living costs compare well with national averages and are lower than most major American metropolitan areas.
