DEAN’S EXCELLENCE FUND
The Dean’s Excellence Fund serves as our annual fund. It is a flexible resource that supports students, our community, and our school, as a whole, by providing current-use dollars for high-impact initiatives related to education, research, and patient care. When you make your gift today, you join us on an exciting journey by providing funding available to address urgent needs and exciting advances at a moment’s notice. Whatever the size of your gift, your generosity will make a difference.
SCHOLARSHIPS
With a growing number of patients and a shrinking nursing workforce, it is more important than ever for our school to empower the next generation of health care professionals, and we are doing just that. We are proud to be named year after year among the top graduate nursing programs in the United States. In addition, our graduates at all degree levels are in high demand. More than 90 percent of our graduates go to work in Texas, directly replenishing our own state’s nursing workforce. By supporting scholarships, you support these students as they prepare to become tomorrow’s health care leaders.
