UT Dallas

 

The University of Texas at Dallas is where we make our home. If you’re a student, you’ve already seen this site. It’s a public, four-year university in Richardson, Texas, on the north side of Dallas. Founded in 1969 as a graduate research institute, it has had freshmen and sophomores since 1990. Now with over 14,000 students and hundreds of distinguished faculty and staff, UTD is on its way to becoming a premier research university, with top-ranking programs in business administration, computer science, and engineering.

 

SEA has been working on campus at UTD to expand the campus recycling program and add a recycling program to the on-campus housing, Waterview Park Apartments. If you’re on campus, look for our new red bins for bottles and cans.
