In this unique multicultural setting, the University offers a rich variety of academic programs and outstanding support services, providingacademic excellence for students.UTEP, the second oldest academic component of The University of Texas System, was established in 1914 as the Texas State School of Mines and Metallurgy to prepareprofessionals for the mining industry of the southwestern U.S. and Mexico. From its inception, the campus has featured architecture derived from the Himalayan kingdom of Bhutan.UTEP’s unique buildings are the only examples of this ancient architecture in the Western Hemisphere. The motif, characterized by thick, sloped outer walls accented with a band ofelaborate brickwork, was suggested by Kathleen Worrell, the wife of the college’s first dean, after she saw photographs of Bhutanese monasteries in an issue of NationalGeographic. Noted El Paso architect Henry Trost designed the first buildings, and architects have continued the theme through more than 90 years of campus expansion.The college’s curriculum expanded in 1927 with the addition of liberal arts courses. The first Master of Arts degree was established in 1940. The institution was renamed TexasWestern College in 1949 and the University of Texas at El Paso in 1967.
