Arkansas Tech is recognized as a statewide leader in STEM education. Students explore intersecting career paths made possible by more than 100 undergraduate degree programs and more than 25 graduate degree options.
ATU has continued a wave of academic innovation with several new degree programs in recent years.

Service learning opportunities, the On Track co-curricular program and Norman Career Services prepare ATU students for success in academics, careers and life.
