Partnerships
We believe if you can imagine it, we can make it. In their centers, labs and studios, our faculty and students blend art, humanities, technology, design and engineering to create transformational experiences that influence culture and redefine futures.
Local Making, Global Impact
We collaborate with community, industry and government partners to understand challenges and find solutions that make things better. This collaborative approach in creative research leads to breakthroughs in the development of technological experiences that shape everyday lives.
Join us in pushing past the boundaries to make work that matters. We offer several ways to collaborate.
Engage in Research
Creative research at the Bass School is transdisciplinary and produces new knowledge, genres and experiences in the areas of animation, games, augmented reality/virtual reality, media studies, emerging media arts, and UX/UI design. Our centers, labs and studios create a flexible environment for exploration and investigation that crosses genres and domains. Contact us to discuss how you can engage in art-based research.
Experiential Learning Collaborations
The Bass School participates in a variety of experiential learning collaborations through graduate and undergraduate research, partner-sponsored competitions, capstone projects, courses and UTDesign/EPICS partnerships. Got a project idea? Reach out directly by completing the proposal form below.
Recruit Students
Internships and volunteerism are a key part of the learning experience outside the classroom. Bass School students look for opportunities to put their smarts into projects and work alongside top talents in the arts, humanities, media studies, animation, games, AR/VR/XR and UX/UI design prior to graduation. Contact the UTD Career Center to learn how you can connect with Comets.
Signature Events
Our signature initiatives provide experiential learning outside the classroom. Sponsoring talks, symposia, performances and exhibitions are some of the ways you can engage faculty and students in the creative exchange of ideas, and gain brand awareness at the same time. Contact us to discuss sponsoring signature initiatives.
Scholarships and Fellowships
Scholarships and fellowships are always about students. These endowments allow the Bass School to compete for top talent regardless of their socioeconomic status. They ensure that students can pursue undergraduate and graduate research and complete their academic goals to become the leaders we need them to be.
