Welcome and thank you for visiting The University of Texas-Pan American Development Office Web site. In addition to the vast information offered here, we also encourage you to contact any of our professional development staff to assist you with questions and gift planning ideas. We are here to help! Today, increasing numbers of community leaders, corporations, and foundations are among UTPA alumni, parents, and friends that are actively involved in helping to shape the face and future of this rapidly growing campus. Your generosity not only enhances the quality of the UTPA educational experience, it helps countless people attain the skills and knowledge they need to succeed and lead in the 21st century. Our students at UTPA are winning national competitions. For example, three female engineering students won 1st place at the 2004 manufacturer design competition, and a team of physician assistant students took first place in a “Medical Challenge Bowl” held in Dallas.  Again, our sincere thanks for your interest in and support of The University of Texas-Pan American. Every donation makes a difference, and we appreciate the generosity of our supporters.
