The University of Texas School of Nursing at Houston is a leader in nursing education and research.

We are ranked in the top 5% of U.S. nursing graduate schools - and among the youngest, founded in 1972.
The School of Nursing ranks 31st among 102 schools of nursing that receive research dollars awarded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH).
Our BSN graduation rate (91%) is the highest of the entry level graduates in the Gulf Coast Region. Our NCLEX-RN first time writers pass rate was 93%, with the State average being 87.9%.
With over 800 students enrolled, we graduate an average of 166 new nurses and 130 nurses with graduate degrees each year. More than 6,000 nurses have graduated since 1972.
40% of our BSN graduates are first generation college graduates and 44% are members of a minority.
Our home, the School of Nursing and Student Community Center, is three years old. This “green” building continues to win architectural awards (10 to date) and is proving to use 30% less electricity, 48% less chilled water, and 85% less heating than comparable buildings at The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston.

Our graduates are in high demand. They are leaders in their many varied research, practice, and education professions. Nurses touch an average of 2000 patients each year. They truly make a difference in this world.
