UA Little Rock is a metropolitan research university that provides accessibility to a quality education through flexible learning and unparalleled internship opportunities. At UA Little Rock, we prepare our more than 11,800 students to be innovators and responsible leaders in their fields. The university’s location in the state’s center of government and business makes it a catalyst for teaching, learning, and research in the service of our local and global community.
Our programs at the Donaghey College of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (CSTEM) are built around forward-thinking precepts, meaning our graduates are prepared to immediately succeed in construction-, engineering- and technology-focused careers – whether working for themselves or at a leading company – as well as in graduate programs at top universities.
CSTEM is also home to eight cutting-edge graduate programs including doctoral degrees, masters of science degrees and graduate certificates – all focused on strategic areas of commerce and research directly relevant to 21st Century success. There are almost 1,200 students enrolled in CSTEM programs.
We’ve now begun our ninth academic year in our six-story, 115,000-square-foot CSTEM Building, which was designed and built to promote students’ success in learning and research. And our home in the middle of Little Rock – Arkansas’s capital city – also provides employment and cultural opportunities found nowhere else in the state.
In 18 years, CSTEM has become a true center of academic excellence, recognized by U.S. News and World Report as having one of the top undergraduate engineering programs at a public university in the South.
