What is the value proposition for San Antonio?

Integrating UT Health San Antonio and UTSA into a single premier university adds immeasurable value to San Antonio. By marshaling the full force of their complementary strengths as one, the unified institution expands academic programs and joint degree programs to attract more students, expand healthcare services and accelerate groundbreaking research — particularly at the intersection of the health sciences with the fields of engineering, applied sciences, and data science. It helps address the region’s burgeoning health needs, drives economic growth, advances innovation, draws new partnerships and turbocharges the university’s ability to compete with top national institutions and achieve its fullest potential as a premier global university.
