The Texas A&M Health Science Center, a component of The Texas A&M University System, is an assembly of colleges devoted to educating health professionals and researchers of extraordinary competence and integrity. Its faculty, staff and students are united by a belief that all people — regardless of geography, economics or culture — deserve the benefits of compassionate care, superior science and exceptional health education.
Established in 1999, the HSC reaches across all parts of Texas through its seven components: Baylor College of Dentistry at Dallas; the College of Medicine campuses at Temple, College Station, Houston, Corpus Christi and Round Rock; the Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences campuses at Dallas, College Station and Houston; the Institute of Biosciences and Technology at Houston; the School of Rural Public Health at College Station; the Irma Lerma Rangel College of Pharmacy at Kingsville; and the College of Nursing in College Station, Texas. Southern regions of the state also are further served by the Coastal Bend Health Education Center, which covers the 19-county region surrounding Corpus Christi and Kingsville, and the South Texas Center at McAllen. The first phase of a new campus located in Round Rock should be completed in fall 2009.
The Texas A&M Health Science Center received full accreditation in December 2002 from the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools to award baccalaureate, master’s, doctoral and professional degrees.
