UT’s iconic Forty Acres feels like a city within a city — from the buzz of bikes and extracurricular group activities on Speedway, students studying and playing games on the Main Mall, and plenty of food trucks, cafés, and restaurants, there’s always energy and excitement in the air on our campus. McCombs is an integral part of the energy that makes the Forty Acres. Our main building is right at the center of the action, situated across from Gregory Gym and the Perry–Castañeda Library — the largest library on campus. And, with the upcoming addition of the Mulva Hallundergraduate building next to the AT&T Hotel and Conference Centerfor executive education and the Robert Rowling Hallgraduate building, McCombs’ state-of-the-art facilities will form their own “business neighborhood” within the greater UT campus. The southwestern corner of campus provides scenic views of Austin’s bustling downtown and the Texas Capitol, representing McCombs’ deep connection to the vibrant Austin business community.
McCombs is one of the top–ranked business schools in the country, and we have the facilities to match. Our academic buildings are designed to maximize opportunities for collaboration and shared learning, with large, open spaces for conversation and coworking, classrooms equipped with enhanced experiential learning technology, and large auditoriums and lecture halls for large classes and guest speakers.
