Discovery Park, commonly nicknamed "D-Park," is a research satellite about a fifteen-minute bus ride north of the main UNT campus, for computer science and engineering classes, labs, and research. Though "park" is in its name, D-Park is essentially a gigantic indoor campus, all within one building. To demonstrate the sheer size of the place, the facility contains multiple food courts and cafés, a library, and study areas. Honestly speaking, D-Park looks like a sad warehouse from the outside. (No offense to Texas Instruments, who donated the building to UNT for the sake of education). Nonetheless, the $2 chicken sandwiches and $1 ice cream cups, which can be bought using flex, make up for the miserable-looking exterior.
Given the distance between Discovery Park and the main campus, most students use the bus to travel between; this leads to additional time needed for obligations that must be filled in D-Park.
