Losing the ability to speak can have devastating consequences. That’s why John Nix, associate professor of voice and voice pedagogy and a leading researcher in vocal cord damage, organized an international conference about occupational voice injuries.

Safety ’Net
Lapses in cyber security can lead to a multitude of nightmare scenarios: identity theft, compromised emergency response and even potential terrorist attacks. Computer security, already a significant research field at UTSA, is poised to become even more robust with the new Institute for Cyber Security.

History Beneath our Footsteps
San Antonio is growing fast, but UTSA won’t let you forget the years of history underfoot. The Center for Archaeological Research plays a critical role in retrieving thousands of artifacts and facilitating city growth without losing its connection to the past.

Manufacturing Success
Efficient production and fast delivery of all products are critical to the success of manufacturers. Yet companies often miss their production goals, which translates to a more expensive product for consumers. UTSA’s Center for Advanced Manufacturing and Lean Systems looks at ways companies can streamline production and reduce costs.
