Established
in 1891 as the University of Texas Medical Department, UTMB
has grown from one building, officially known as the Ashbel
Smith Building, but affectionately called "Old
Red", 23 students and 13 faculty members to a modern health
science center with more than 70 major buildings, more than
2,500 students and more than 1,000 faculty. The 84-acre campus
includes four schools,
two institutes for advanced study, a major medical
library, a network of hospitals and clinics that provide
a full range of primary and specialized medical
care, an affiliated Shriners Burns Hospital, and numerous
research
facilities. UTMB is a component of the University
of Texas System.
