About the Brownsville Regional Campus
The University of Texas School of Public Health Brownsville Regional Campus is part of the Regional Academic Health Center of the Lower Rio Grande valley. Our building is located on the University of Texas Brownsville Campus, adjacent to the UTB/TSC Life and Health Sciences Building. The Regional Campus of the School of Public Health was established in January 2001. Ten faculty members and various support staff occupy the building which was partially completed in January 2002. The faculty has a wide range of expertise, and extensive experience in research and teaching. Research is a major part of the expectations of all faculty as part of the University Of Texas Health Science Center. All faculty are well published and have embarked on research programs and grant writing upon arrival in Brownsville. Links with established scientists at the Houston campus as well as other institutions such as UTHSC- San Antonio, University of Texas at Dallas, Baylor College of Medicine, Centers for Disease Control, University of Colorado, University of Texas at Brownsville, etc. are well established. Further, research links with the medical community across the border area have also been established in order to conduct research on both sides of the border.
