Use a Database to search for scholarly articles in a desired subject area, or McDermott Library's Discover to search broadly across many databases. A scholarly database contains few popular articles, if any at all.
Both tabs can be found in the center of the Library's homepage, utdallas.edu/library.

Many databases - as well as Discover - feature a Peer Review / Scholarly search limiter either before or after you enter your keywords. Check this box to ensure that all of your search results are peer reviewed.
This example of a Peer Review limiter is from Ebsco, a popular database search host:
