Cheney said the new 135,000-square-foot campus will help foster and drive the “tremendous economic impact” the city needs. About 2,500 students will attend the campus next year. The new campus sits on 100 acres of land donated by Frisco officials at no cost to jumpstart the partnership. Smatresk recognized during a tour on Tuesday that the new building resides on Indigenous Peoples land — including the Wichita and affiliated tribes and the Caddo Nation.In 2015, the Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education first designated UNT as a “Very High Research Activity” university, or R1 — a highly coveted and elusive designation.
Jason Ford, Frisco Economic Development Corporation’s president, said having a top-tier research university in the community will serve as a magnet to attract talent, companies and jobs. Jeannine Vail, UNT’s senior project architect who also teaches interior design, said designers thoughtfully chose natural elements, such as stone and light wood, throughout the building, along with the institution’s trademark green accents, to promote a sense of openness.
