The UTHealth School of Public Health Dallas Campus opened its doors 25 years ago with the mission to improve the health of communities in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, across the state, nation, and worldwide. This year, we celebrate the accomplishments of our campus faculty, students, and staff over the last quarter century and celebrate the imprint they have left on the region. Promoting good health by preventing disease and improving quality of life is our business and our passion. We do this by conducting cutting-edge public health research and by training the next generation of public health leaders. We are proud to forever be connected to the rich history of the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex as we serve its communities with dedication.

Our Research Program

The Dallas Campus Research Program integrates population/public health and clinical care across the lifespan to improve outcomes, particularly for vulnerable individuals and communities.

Our faculty includes internationally renowned experts in injury and violence prevention, cancer prevention and cancer survivorship, health disparities, social determinants of health, healthy aging, and pediatric population health. Our faculty are also experts in cutting-edge research methods in health care delivery, implementation science, program evaluation, and mixed methods. The research we undertake is the catalyst that engages our communities and our students. Faculty members pursue and build relationships with partners whose vision and standards align with UTHealth School of Public Health Dallas. Together they address the most critical health problems of our times.

The campus is home to two world-class research centers - The Center for Pediatric Population Health and the UTHealth Institute for Implementation Science. These programs provide a competitive and supportive research environment for our faculty and students to engage in cutting-edge research.
