ICYMI: UT-San Antonio is the fifth public university in Texas to achieve Texas Tier One status.
Sign up for The BriefThe University of Texas at San Antonio is the latest public university to achieve the distinctive statewide Tier One status, which qualifies the school for access to $6 million in state funding annually to help attract prominent scholars and improve university research initiatives., which was created in 2009.
“As an urban serving university that is committed to uplifting San Antonio and a Hispanic Serving University that is accelerating Latino student success, NRUF is a significant waypoint on our path to transform UTSA into the next great public research university and to promote social mobility and economic prosperity in the greater San Antonio region,” UTSA President Taylor Eighmy said in a statement.
In Texas, universities reach Tier One status under Texas’ National Research University Fund when they spend more than $45 million on restricted research over two years and meet four of six requirements two years in a row, including awarding more than 200 doctorate degrees every year and enrolling a “freshman class with high academic achievement.”
A UTSA statement explained that the school met its Tier One benchmarks by employing five tenured or tenure-track faculty who are members of National Academies, the honorary societies for science, engineering and medicine professors. The school also enrolled freshman classes for two years in a row in which at least half of the first-time freshmen graduated in the top quarter of their high school classes.
