The “Dr. Alberto Romo Caballero” Faculty of Medicine of the Autonomous University of Tamaulipas (UAT) turned 73 years old this September and as it is an institution with a lot of meaning, since it has trained thousands of doctors and health specialists who now They work throughout Tamaulipas and the country, we will tell you a little more regarding their history.
“That dream that was born in 1950 with 11 students who started their classes on a Monday has grown. Since we have a community of more than 2,300 undergraduate and graduate students of the faculty.

We have seen how that dream has multiplied for the benefit of the community, with all the doctors graduating with the talent and humanism that characterizes them,” said Raúl de León Escobedo, director of the Faculty of Medicine.
The most requested faculty at the UAT
Within the Autonomous University of Tamaulipas there are 26 faculties distributed throughout the state of Tamaulipas, however, the Tampico Faculty of Medicine is number one in terms of demand for high school education students.
“They look for us as an option, even though we do not do campaigns, nor do we have any type of promotion.
“Last start of classes, we had 1,400 applicants, there was no other faculty that exceeded that number, although only the 150 best students entered, we have a great demand for students.”
He warned that another point is the academic level of the faculty, since in other schools they take an exam, but at the UAT they apply seven exams to enter.

Faculty projects for 2024
This year it is intended to complete the construction of two clinical spaces to provide medical care to the population.
“They are so that the knowledge generated has a direct impact. With the support of the rector of the University, Guillermo Mendoza, there will be two highly specialized clinics.”
He added that they are working on the civil works so that they will be inaugurated before the end of the year. While next year two operating rooms will be built, so that the students have real patients to care for and not only use the platforms and simulators, since nothing equals direct contact with the patient, he noted.
