University Description
The University of Texas at San Antonio serves the San Antonio metropolitan area and the broader region of South Texas through programs and services offered from its three campuses: 1604 Campus, Downtown Campus, and UTSA’s Institute of Texan Cultures. With more than 30,000 students enrolled in over 130 undergraduate and graduate degree programs, UTSA is the second-largest component in the University of Texas System and has been one of the state’s fastest-growing public universities for much of the last decade. UTSA offers 62 bachelor’s, 49 master’s and 22 doctoral degree programs. With many master’s and doctoral programs in the planning stages or awaiting final approval, UTSA is rapidly moving toward classification as a doctoral/research intensive institution.
The university’s three campuses provide access and opportunity for large numbers of historically underserved students. More than 56 percent of UTSA’s students come from groups underrepresented in higher education. Many students are the first in their families to attend a college or university.

Region Description
UTSA is a comprehensive public metropolitan university. The student population reflects the bi-lingual, bi-cultural heritage of San Antonio. In describing San Antonio, one of our recent post-docs described it as, "Home of the River Walk, the Alamo and the 3-time NBA Champion Spurs, San Antonio is truly a big city that feels like a small town.” The culture-rich city offers renowned art museums, theatre, and fine dining. For those who love the outdoors, San Antonio is perched on the edge of the Texas Hill Country which offers hiking, biking and river tubing. The state capital of Austin is an easy hour and a half away, offering incomparable access to the famous Texas music scene. Feel the heat in the summer but enjoy a mild climate the rest of the year."
