Office of Special Programs

Welcome to the Office of Special Programs web page.  The mission of the Office of Special Programs is the recruitment, matriculation, retention, and graduation of economically and educationally disadvantaged as well as underrepresented minority medical students.  These programs provide high school, undergraduate, post baccalaureate and medical students with an array of opportunities to increase their academic success.  This office has established partnerships with a number of Texas colleges and universities to assist with the recruitment of students with an interest in the medical field.  Through this website, students interested in medical school may obtain information and applications to the many summer programs which are sponsored by this office. 

These programs are supported by the Health Careers Opportunity Programs and the Hispanic Center of Excellence grants through the Division of Health Careers Diversity and Development, Health Resources and Services Administration, and the Department of Health and Human Services.
