University of Texas Permian Basin

Find More PhDs
A “basin” is a simple geological term for a dip or depression in the earth’s surface—usually caused by erosion aboveground and earthquakes deep underneath. Stretching from eastern New Mexico and covering most of West Texas (Lubbock to the north, the Rio Grande Valley to the south), the Permian Basin is actually a collection of smaller basins. 

History

In 1969, the Texas Legislature authorized an upper-level university accepting only junior, senior and master's degree graduate students as part of an experiment in upper-level education in Odessa, Texas. Construction plans began soon after; however, a series of delays - including a lawsuit challenging the validity of the University's property deeds - halted all work. 

Education

A teacher who trains lifelong learners? A petroleum engineer discovering a new, cleaner way to drill? The CEO of a startup or major company? The choice is yours. And at UT Permian Basin—where opportunity meets excellence—you have plenty of options. You're just a few clicks away from starting your journey. What are you waiting for?

Research

All Federal Government agency sponsored proposals and State and Local Government sponsored proposals should be routed through the OSPR as should be proposals made to national organizations. All other classifications would normally go through Development, but there is some overlap and the two offices do cooperate and work together.

Career

The UTPB Career Center’s mission is to assist students in developing, evaluating and implementing career, education, and employment decisions and plans. Career development is integral to the success of UTPB graduates and the mission of our university. All UTPB students will be able to acquire the necessary skills to enable them to successfully take personal responsibility for the management of their careers.
