The University of Texas at San Antonio merged with The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio on Sept. 1 to become The University of Texas at San Antonio.
The University of Texas System shared plans to merge the two entities into a unified institution in late August 2024.
The institution, which is now Texas’ third-largest public research university, comprises 15 colleges and schools across six campuses, around 40,000 students, 17,000 employees, more than 320 undergraduate and graduate degrees, $486 million in annual research expenditures and a $1.3 billion endowment, according to a Sept. 1 news release.
The new entity is expected to contribute up to $7 billion annually in support of San Antonio’s $41.1 billion biosciences and healthcare sector. UT Health San Antonio sees over 2.5 million patient visits per year and is expected to train more than 1,000 fellows and residents.
“UT San Antonio students have access to an education of the highest quality in disciplines ranging from science, engineering, business, education, humanities, social sciences, architecture and the arts to biomedical sciences, medicine, public health, dentistry, nursing and other allied health professions,” the release added.
