Center for Global Business

The Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex is the fourth-largest metropolitan area in the United States and the largest in Texas. This makes the area a hotbed for international trade and investment which causes a need for top ranked global business programs.

Few universities in the United States offer as comprehensive a set of degree programs dedicated to global business as we do — at the undergraduate, master’s, and PhD levels. Our world-class faculty publish some of the most influential and widely cited research. Students flock to our programs. Businesses are eager to tap into our talent pool. UT Dallas is truly a center for global business.

Funding priorities and initiatives include:

Supporting the Sustainable Global Business Initiative (SGBI)
Supporting the Global Development Initiative
Scholarships
Student Study Abroad
