An Ideal LocationUTA is located in the heart of the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex, the fourth-largest metropolitan area in the United States. Arlington is located between Dallas and Fort Worth and is a center for sporting events, tourism and manufacturing.

The Metroplex has one of the highest concentrations of corporate headquarters in the United States. Also, just minutes from campus, DFW International Airport and several interstate highways allow easy access to global collaboration and commerce.

There’s plenty to do here: the NFL’s Dallas Cowboys and Major League Baseball’s Texas Rangers both play about two miles from campus, and the Cowboys’ AT&T Stadium regularly hosts blockbuster concerts and other major events. There’s an excellent music scene in Dallas and Fort Worth, and plenty of shopping and entertainment options throughout the region.
