About this School
The University of North Texas (informally UNT or North Texas) is a public university located in Denton, Texas. It was founded in 1890 by Joshua C. Chilton as the Texas Normal College and Teacher Training Institute. From its inception to present day, the institution has had its name modified six times to reflect the institution's growth and change. In 1894, the name became North Texas Normal College, followed by North Texas State Normal College in 1901. The institution was known as North Texas State Teachers College in 1923, North Texas State College in 1949, and North Texas State University in 1961, before finally being named the University of North Texas in 1988. With an enrollment of more than 32,000 students, it is now the largest university in the north Texas area and the fourth largest university in Texas. The university is a member of the Federation of North Texas Area Universities, offering various graduate degrees in coordination with Texas Woman's University and Texas A&M University-Commerce. The Denton campus is the flagship of the University of North Texas System, which also includes University of North Texas Health Science Center at Fort Worth, University of North Texas Research Park and the University of North Texas at Dallas.
