CLASS Take Flight - The CLASS Take Flight is a First Year Advising program for all students in their first year at UNT after high school graduation.

Mayborn’s Student Internship & Professional Development Fund - Established a few short years ago, this fund helps send students to out-of-state dream internships that they could not normally afford, as well as pays for travel for students to attend professional conferences and awards ceremonies as they network and spread the word about all that the Mayborn School has to offer. 

Undergraduate Research & Discovery Initiatives - This fund helps to support undergraduate students to participate in research projects under the mentorship of elite faculty who are experts in their field. The experience of student research allows them to develop essential skills such as hypothesis testing, critical analysis and communication skills that build their confidence while developing their expertise. 

Graduate Student Professional Development - This fund is used to support graduate students to showcase their developing research and scholarship at national and international conferences and conventions. These experiences are essential to expanding the training grounds and growth our UNT's next generation of academic and industry leaders.
