TTUHSC: Positioned for Future Success
Leveraging What Sets Us Apart
We are a values-driven university shaping the next generation of health care leaders and expanding access to quality care where it is needed most. Our culture of personal investment ensures that learners and team members thrive — building a workforce ready to serve.
Through top-ranked, accessible education, real-world training and research grounded in the needs of the populations we serve, we deliver unmatched value — anchored by our deep and ongoing commitment to rural areas and underserved populations. This is how we shape THE FUTURE OF HEALTH.

We believe that your zip code should not determine your health. Yet, for many Texans,
it does. This reality is a call to action; this strategic plan is our response.
