Today, the most prestigious school of public health in the state and fourth-largest in the country – UTHealth Houston School of Public Health – broke ground on the new @UTHealthSPH building that will open in fall 2026. The 10-story, 350,000-square-foot tower in TMC’s Helix Park underscores the school’s mission of health promotion and disease prevention, sustainable access to affordable health care with improved outcomes, and training the next generation of leaders in public health sciences.
