Academic and Enrichment Program Accepting Applications
A Science Enrichment Experience for Rising Sophomores

The Academic and Enrichment Program (AEP) is a four to five week summer program that provides basic science course reviews and additional academic enrichment activities that enhance the student's competitiveness for a career in the health field.

The University of Texas Medical Branch has a proud tradition of excellence in teaching, scholarly research, curricular innovation and in meeting the healthcare needs of the State of Texas. As director of the Hispanic Center of Excellence, my primary objective is to provide faculty and students with future opportunities in career advancement, research, clinical practice, mentorship, counseling, and pre-medical academic enrichment programs to promising students. The HCOE's history in UTMB dates back to 1992, through federal funding by the US Department of Health and Human Services, Health Resources and Services Administration.
