As the end of the semester and finals approach, it’s important for students to have a quiet space to study and focus.
UTA and areas surrounding campus offer a variety of study spots to cater to every student’s needs, whether they prefer collaborative work, quiet contemplation or a change of scenery.
Beyond the Central Library, various academic buildings and local coffee shops offer excellent environments to hit the books.
Some of the options students have on and off-campus include: the Science and Engineering Innovation and Research Building, Social Grounds at the School of Social Work and Smart Hospital, Starbucks at the UTA Bookstore, Inclusion Coffee, White Rhino Coffee, ICafe and the George W.
