The University of Texas at Austin helps build a strong regional economy and provides an educated workforce for Central Texas. Its museums, libraries and athletic facilities serve the local community and the seven million tourists that visit Austin each year.
The university transforms people. And those people, in turn, change the world.
What starts here changes the world.
