Join Our Team

The University of Texas at San Antonio is San Antonio's only Tier One research-intensive academic health center and academic institution, nationally recognized for its research innovation, doctoral education and impact. 

UT San Antonio maintains designations as a Carnegie R1 and Carnegie Community Engaged institution. Our university also earned the prestigious Association of Public and Land-grant Universities 2025 Excellence in Student Success Award — a recognition of scalable, evidence-based strategies that are moving the needle for student outcomes. We were also designated a Carnegie Opportunity College, underscoring our deep commitment to advancing social and economic mobility for students. UT San Antonio is now among just 13 institutions nationwide to hold this unique combination of national distinctions.

To drive UT San Antonio on its continued trajectory of extraordinary success, our Advancement and Alumni Engagement team serves to create philanthropic and engagement opportunities that will lead our donors and alumni to support transformational student access, learning, and success; a world-class health system; a world-class research university; and an innovative place to learn, work, discover and practice. 

Our team aims to exhibit the university’s core values of integrity, excellence, respect, collaboration, and innovation in all that we do. If those values resonate with you, we encourage you to consider joining our team

Our Culture

Many of our colleagues describe our culture as innovative and collaborative. We are encouraged to stay up-to-date with the latest ideas in advancement and test new strategies of our own. From planning giving campaigns and coordinating galas, to stewarding our donors and preparing for the next big “ask,” each department and team has an integral role in our success.

Strengths-Based Team

We are a “Strengths-Based” team: Within a colleague’s first few days on the job, they are invited to complete CliftonStrengths assessment and their results are added to our team’s Strengths grid. We are encouraged to learn about and appreciate our own unique talents as well as our colleagues’ talents.
