Centers & Institutes
Welcome...
Since its inception, the Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center (TTUHSC) has seen the establishment of numerous centers and institutes that have made important contributions to the accomplishment of TTUHSC mission and goals.
Centers and Institutes at TTUHSC are multidisciplinary and/or interdisciplinary groups of faculty and their associates who have been brought together for the pursuit of research, education, and/or clinical activities. The goals of each center and institute typically require substantial collaboration and cooperation between two or more disciplines from within and outside of TTUHSC.
To achieve their goals, each center/institute strives to support the mission and vision of TTUHSC by:
- Encouraging and accelerating the application of knowledge obtained from research to patient care and education;
- Establishing and evaluating innovative training and educational programs; and
