Admission Criteria

Thank you for your interest in The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley Bachelors of Applied Technology (B.A.T.-H.S.T) Program.  This program was designed for students already holding an AAS degree in a health profession with a desire for academic and career advancement.  This degree does not prepare practitioners for professional certification in a new field.
