Your Maverick Life, Organized
MyUTA is a one-stop destination for your UTA experience. It has been designed as an experience for all, providing a campus experience at your convenience. Available in mobile and desktop versions, you can easily manage your day-to-day UTA experience using your phone or desktop computer.
As a centralized hub for many essential tools and resources, MyUTA allows direct integration with many established information systems at UTA. This allows the campus community (students, employees, and guests) to perform tasks and find information directly in MyUTA, minimizing dependence on visiting multiple individual sites.
MyUTA replaced the UTA Mobile app. This project page will detail technical enhancements.
History of UTA's Mobile app
Where We Started
The first edition of the UTA Mobile app, launched in 2009, originally included few features and a one-page design with links to external web pages, reducing time spent in the app. This initial version of UTA Mobile was largely unchanged for many years. Adoption and usage were low.
How We've Grown
Feedback and internal review identified UTA Mobile as a key tool to further UTA’s goals for student success. In 2020, during the return-to-campus procedures brought on by COVID-19, a self-assessment portal was added to the mobile app—the first step in upgrading the platform and enhancing its functionality and usability. Subsequently, a Mobile Strategy Project was introduced to initiate a significant overhaul, producing a new interface, new features, dashboard integration, and more.
Rename to MyUTA
The project team agreed to rename UTA Mobile to MyUTA, a name that better combines the common experience of using MyUTA on a mobile device or desktop. By redesigning the product to achieve a better user experience, MyUTA can continue to leverage student engagement, retention, and graduation more effectively.
