The Office of Academic Affairs is pleased to introduce the thirteenth edition of The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston’s annual Fact Book. As with previous editions, there are a few data-related caveats.
Fact Book 2006 covers fiscal years 1996 through 2005 wherever possible and appropriate. Titles and data headers will clearly indicate the time frames that follow. There are some student, faculty and employee tables as well as budget tables that reflect FY 2006 data as it is available and timely.

Text sections, including those in the Institutional Profile, Education (International Relations) and Institutional Development (University Advancement) tabs reflect most current information available as of press time.

Fact Book 2006 is disseminated primarily to an internal audience of academic and managerial administrators and faculty. Our primary aim has always been to compile useful and interesting information about the university in a format that provides historical context and lends itself to trend analysis for the use and convenience of administrators, faculty and staff.

Please direct questions and comments regarding Fact Book 2006 to:
