MISSION : The mission of the Student Health Center is two-fold: the first is to provide a wide variety of Health Services and Health Education to the students enrolled in the University of Texas at El Paso. The second is to serve as a triage center to Faculty and Staff who suffer minor work-related injuries and to provide Occupational Health Services to University Researchers and their Staff. The services and education provided will be of the best quality and at the most economic cost, and will be available throughout the calendar year.
