Vice President for Research
University of Texas at El Paso


The University of Texas at El Paso has made great strides in building capacity and creating an environment of growth for research. With more than $50 million in annual research expenditures, UTEP is well on its way to becoming a national research university. This success is due in part to the capital investment the University has made in research equipment and facilities, an investment that has facilitated the recruitment and retention of faculty who successfully compete at the national level. UTEP’s success also is enhanced by the supportive climate for research, creative, and scholarly activities in all of the University’s colleges.
