 The University of Texas at Tyler
A member of the renowned University of Texas System, The University of Texas at Tyler carries a proud tradition of high quality students and academic opportunities. Located on 200 acres, UT Tyler is a safe university with a park-like setting of lush trees and wild life. The campus consists of 14 modern buildings arranged around two lakes.
UT Tyler is ranked among the top 15 public master’s level universities and among the top 51 master’s level universities overall in the West region by US News and World Report.
One of the state’s fastest growing universities, UT Tyler provides the individual opportunity you would only expect at a small private university – without private university tuition expenses. We are attracting excellent students who often out-perform graduates from all other Texas public universities on state licensing exams in engineering, nursing and education.
Texas became a PLTW affiliate partner in 2001 through the University of Houston Center for Technology Literacy. The Texas PLTW affiliation transferred to The University of Texas at Tyler Ingenuity Center in 2005.
The mission of the Ingenuity Center is to increase the technological literacy and creativity of Texas’s youth. The UT Tyler Ingenuity Center develops instructional resources and teacher professional development activities to help middle and high school teachers enhance their skills for teaching about technological literacy and innovation education.
Working with the national Project Lead The Way, the Ingenuity Center directs the Texas Project Lead The Way 6-12 engineering program. It also provides summer training for teachers, as well as conferences for counselors, administrators, and teachers.
