There’s plenty that sets The University of Texas at Tyler apart from the other seven universities in the prestigious University of Texas System. Not only do we rank among the highest in the entire system for students graduating on time, but our students graduate with some of the highest starting salaries and lowest loan amounts—meaning you get quality education at an exceptional value. From cancer treatments to statewide political polling, undergraduate students have unique opportunities to conduct research that truly impacts lives in East Texas and beyond. Our close-knit campus community will be here for you. We understand that college is one of the best and most challenging times in your life, which is why we have teams of academic, financial and student support experts here to help you every step of the way. All of that, plus more than 200 acres of fun: forests filled with hiking and biking trails and two lakes for canoeing, fishing and chilling. All that’s missing is you.
WE ARE TOO.

PRE-PROFESSIONAL PROGRAMS
UT Tyler is dedicated to helping you succeed, which is why we have a wide-range of 12 pre-professional programs. We recently launched our Pre-Medical Academy, which focuses on developing and preparing UT Tyler pre-med students for medical school through specialized advising, MCAT prep, training, workshops and job shadowing.
Coming Fall 2020, our Pre-Law Academy will prepare students for law school through special programs, camps, advising and workshops, including LSAT prep courses and a robust internship program with local companies and firms.
EBONY G.Class of 2020
“I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to visit
Italy and Greece and to have had the opportunity
to explore and witness the monumental sites upon
which their literature and culture is based. It was an eye-opening experience of the diversity between
cultures around the world.”
GAVIN D.Class of 2020
“It is hard to fathom, in the grand scheme of history,
that a critical moment in the development of Western
political thought started in Socrates’ martyrdom for justice and the laws. My
future research and career choice exist because of the events that occurred in his
life and during his final days in his jail cell.”uttyler.edu/preprofessional

LIFE-CHANGING
HEARTFELT
Electrical engineering majors assist Dr. Premananda Indic in designing wearable biosensors to detect life-threatening illnesses in newborns.
Health and kinesiology students participate in Dr. Benjamin Tseng’s research in the treatment of patients with atrial fibrillation.
ARTHUR F.Class of 2019
“Working with Professor Mena Souliman to design a bicycle lane network for Tyler was exciting because
my goal as an engineer is to make a positive impact in the community around me. This research project will impact the city for years to come.”
Beyond the classroom, many students at The University of Texas at Tyler are asking questions, finding answers and contributing to advancements in their fields of interest through undergraduate research and discovery.
By participating in research, you will help solve real-world problems while gaining valuable insight into your chosen field and building skills that employers seek including critical thinking, trouble shooting, communication and collaboration.
Take part in the innovative endeavors with professors like Dr. Dustin Patterson in biochemistry, who is developing cell-specific drug delivery strategies in the fight against cancer; or Dr. Nelson Fumo in mechanical engineering, who is working to increase the energy efficiency of residential air conditioning systems. Delve into psychology research with Dr. Amy Hayes on subjects such as the interaction between emotional intelligence, gender and academic achievement.
