Size and Location
The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, also called UT Health San Antonio, has one central campus, as defined by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges. However, in order to provide clarity for the general public and consumers of the university's patient, educational or community services, the university's central campus is consistently described to include multiple campus identities in all marketing, communications and advertising collateral. In San Antonio, Texas, they are the Joe R. and Teresa Lozano Long Campus and the Greehey Academic and Research Campus.
Joe R. and Teresa Lozano Long Campus
The Joe R. and Teresa Lozano Long School of Medicine, School of Dentistry, School of Nursing, School of Health Professions and the Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences are based on the Joe R. & Teresa Lozano Long Campus, as are the Dolph Briscoe Jr. Library and most of the university’s administrative offices.

In 2020, the UT System Board of Regents approved plans for the $443 million UT Health San Antonio Multispecialty & Research Hospital, which will be located at 8311 Ewing Halsell Drive and feature 144 beds, 12 operating rooms, an intensive care unit, infusion center, emergency department, pharmacy, laboratories and an imaging center.

In 2022, the University of Texas System Board of Regents approved plans to create The UT School of Public Health San Antonio, a collaboration between The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, also called UT Health San Antonio, and The University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA).
