| - UTD offers over 133 academic programs across its seven schools and hosts more than 50 research centers and institutes. With a number of interdisciplinary degree programs, its curriculum is designed to allow study that crosses traditional disciplinary lines and to enable students to participate in collaborative research labs. Entering freshmen average math and critical reading SAT scores are among the highest of the public universities in Texas and 1270 for 2012. The Carnegie Foundation classifies UT Dallas as a "comprehensive doctoral research university" and a "high research activity institution". Research projects include the areas of space science, bioengineering, cybersecurity, nanotechnology, and behavioral and brain sciences. UT Dallas owns approximately acres ( km2) of generally contiguous land in Richardson, Texas consisting of acres ( km2) for campus development and another acres ( km2) adjacent to the main campus. From 2007 the university has added or started construction on more than square feet ( m2) of new facilities including the first academic structure in Texas to be rated a LEED Platinum facility.
