About Us
Welcome to the Office of External Affairs at The University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA). Our mission is to support UTSA by enhancing public and governmental support necessary for operating our four campuses (Loop 1604, Downtown Campus, ITC, and University Heights). Our job is to communicate all of UTSA's needs and priorities with our elected officials and government agencies at the City, County, State and Federal levels. In addition, we serve as the President's liaison in the community with Chambers of Commerce, businesses and other external stakeholders.
We work closely with the Office of Governmental Relations at UT System in Austin and with UT System's Office of Federal Relations in Washington D.C. Your interests are our interests.
Thank you for all you do for UTSA, let us know how we can be of service.
