Bachelor's Programs
The UNT College of Information offers a diverse array of degree programs across four academic departments.
The department provides students with a strong foundation in theoretical principles,
computational skills, artificial intelligence, and software engineering, preparing
them to excel in data science, machine learning, big data analytics, and AI-driven
software development. By integrating cutting-edge research with hands-on learning,
the department fosters innovation and prepares graduates for academic, industry, and
government careers in the rapidly evolving world of data and AI-driven decision making.
The BS with a major in information science prepares students for a career at the
intersection of information, people and technology. Students earning this degree are
able to customize their program by developing focused areas of study (concentrations)
or by choosing a minor or certificate in another field.
Information has increased in importance, opening the door to exciting opportunities. A key component of the information science program is its flexibility. Courses are offered in a variety of formats, including face-to-face, online and blended, that allows you to balance classes with full-time or part-time employment.

Learning technologies graduates play key roles in a wide variety of educational
and business settings such as principals of schools, technology coordinators, web
designers and developers, technical consultants, higher education faculty, instructional
designers, and researchers. Their impact on learning technologies will continue to
evolve and expand over the next few decades.
The vision of the learning technologies department is to provide students with knowledge and experience that add value to learning technologies through research, product development, and application of current tools to solve educational problems.

The BA with a major in linguistics provides students opportunities for working
with data with an eye to discovering predictable linguistic patterns (linguistic problem
solving). Students learn how to read, write, and present syntheses of relevant published
work and to arrive at their own original theoretical formulations.
Because linguistics provides students with the skills to analyze language, companies like Microsoft, Google and Apple are also eager to hire students with linguistics degrees. Read more on the Linguistic Society of America web site (www.linguisticsociety.org).
