Hello, and welcome to the website of The Graduate School at UTEP!  You are visiting us at a very important time in the history of graduate education at our university.

Graduate programs are growing at UTEP in breadth, depth and academic reputation. We have over 70 Master’s programs and sixteen doctoral programs. Some of the honors our programs are receiving include the following:  Hispanic Business magazine has named UTEP’s MBA Program 6th best in the nation for Hispanics; and the College of Engineering is ranked as the national leader for graduating Hispanic Engineers.

The staff in The Graduate School is happy to: provide you information about any of our programs; offer you application and registration assistance; direct you to places for financial assistance, and describe the various graduate student

services UTEP has to offer. For instance, this website provides updated information on graduate student workshops and seminars.

We have an excellent graduate faculty at UTEP.  Moreover, the graduate advisers in our various departments are  able to answer questions about their specific graduate programs.  To see a listing of UTEP’s graduate programs, please click on the following link: graduate programs

At UTEP, we have the programs and the people to give you an outstanding graduate education at the master’s and doctoral levels.  We live and work in a vibrant international city, with a culture and climate that is welcoming to people of all nationalities, races, and ethnicities.  If you are already one of our students, let me know how things are going.  If you are thinking about joining us,  I would be happy to talk with you.
