Welcome to the Compliance Certification for the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC) reaffirmation of accreditation for The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, now called UT Health San Antonio.
From our earliest days almost 60 years ago, our proud health science center has evolved into serving as San Antonio’s chief catalyst for its $37 billion biosciences and health care industry. As we remain deeply committed to core values that include accountability, diversity, excellence, innovation and integrity, we hold in our sights a vision to be a world-class academic health center that transforms health and health care for a diverse society.
As one of 14 University of Texas System institutions, we graduate more than 200 physicians, 400 nurses, 100 dentists, 300 health professionals in other fields and 100 scientists each year. From notable research findings published in leading journals around the world, to our revolutionary advancements in cardiovascular technology and cancer treatment, our faculty experts pursue powerful scientific solutions for society.
As we work to advance our missions – education, research, clinical care and community engagement -- we stand deeply committed to the SACSCOC accreditation process and to continuously enhancing the education of our students through dedicated emphasis placed on innovative instruction, trailblazing technology, Interprofessional collaboration and critical student support services. This reaffirmation process has provided us the platform from which to re-examine our curriculum and co-curricular activities, as well as administrative processes and procedures, as we refine our journey of continuous improvement in all areas.
Our faculty, staff, students and residents contribute daily, without reservation, their multifaceted talents, exemplary minds and unrelenting commitment to expanding the discovery of all that can be known -- in order to make lives better. We are most grateful to the Commission for its partnership with us in this passion to change the world through renewed hope and improved health for years to come.
