Message from the Provost and Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs - February 29, 2024

Hello again, Vaqueros! Here we are approaching the midpoint of the 2024 Spring Semester. From my many years in higher education, we know that faculty are just as eager as students to see spring break arrive. This past month has been a busy one, like most months, chock-full of meetings and events that keep me in awe of the hard work that every faculty, staff, and student produces to propel UTRGV forward.

Message from the Provost and Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs - January 22, 2024

Welcome back, Vaqueros! We concluded 2023 by celebrating 2,800 graduates over two days of inspiring and invigorating commencements. On a hot weekend in December, our graduates savored these special moments with their loving families, memorializing them with photos across campus in Brownsville and Edinburg. Those two days remind us that we are one university with one identity.
