2 · Rowling Hall (McCombs graduate business)
The graduate home of the McCombs School of Business and the base for its executive-education and event programming. It's the building you see first across MLK, and it's where most of the AI-for-business teaching below happens.
3 · The McCombs "AI school" — what it entails clients + skills
McCombs' AI offering isn't one "school" — it's a set of AI-centered business programs. What they are:
- MS in Business Analytics (MSBA) — "turning data, AI, and machine learning into business insights." On-campus or online. The flagship AI/data degree.
- MS in Information Technology & Management (MSITM) — hands-on AI and data-driven solutions; aimed at tech-career professionals.
- Executive Education — shorter professional courses (this is the path a non-degree "citizen" can take — open-enrollment AI/analytics courses for working professionals).
- Undergrad fast-track — a master's in as little as 10 months for UT undergrads.
Why it matters to us (two angles)
- Clients. The people and companies cycling through McCombs' AI/analytics programs are exactly who need web development and automated marketing — a natural lead pool right across the street.
- Skills/credibility. An Executive-Ed AI course would sharpen and credential what we already build with the automated-marketing engine.

Separately, UT also runs an online MS in Artificial Intelligence through its computer-science program (not McCombs) that's known for being low-cost — worth a look; verify.
