There are actually six campuses: Central, North, Texas Research Park, Harlingen, Laredo and Edinburg.

CENTRAL CAMPUS
The Medical, Dental, Nursing and Graduate Schools are based on the Central Campus at 7703 Floyd Curl Drive, as are the Dolph Briscoe Jr. Library and most of the Health Science Center’s administrative offices.

A mile away from Central Campus, three buildings at 8403 Floyd Curl constitute the North Campus. The buildings are the Children's Cancer Research Institute, dedicated in 2004 and home to 10 faculty researchers studying cancer; the Allied Health/Research Building, housing the School of Allied Health Sciences departments of occupational therapy, physical therapy, dental hygiene, physician assistant studies, respiratory care and clinical laboratory sciences, and the Graduate School's Center for Biomolecular Analysis; and the Robert F. McDermott Clinical Science Building, home to the Research Imaging Center, the department of ophthalmology and the division of clinical pharmacy.

TEXAS RESEARCH PARK CAMPUS
Studies of cancer, aging, infectious diseases and other topics are ongoing in three research buildings at this campus in the Texas Research Park west of San Antonio. The Institute of Biotechnology (IBT), opened in 1990, is home to the department of molecular medicine; the South Texas Centers for Biology in Medicine, opened in 2001, is the site of studies of diseases prevalent in the South Texas/Border Region; and the Sam and Ann Barshop Institute for Longevity and Aging Studies, dedicated in May 2005, is the home of studies aimed at understanding the ways aging underlies many diseases, including cancer and Parkinson's disease. The SBC Teleconference Center is a state-of-the-art teleconference facility serving the scientists on this campus.

HARLINGEN (RAHC) CAMPUS
The Medical Education Division of the Lower Rio Grande Valley Regional Academic Health Center (RAHC) opened in June 2002, and is the center of education for 24 third-year and 24 fourth-year medical students who rotate through affiliated clinics and teaching hospitals in the Valley. The Harlingen Campus also is the home base for eight internal medicine residents.
LAREDO CAMPUS
The Laredo Campus Extension came to fruition in December 2002 with the dedication of the D.D. Hachar Building. Students in respiratory therapy, occupational therapy, physical therapy, dental hygiene and dentistry have part of their educational experiences at the Hachar Building. The campus is headquarters for the South Texas Environmental Education and Research (STEER) Program and the Laredo office of the Med/Ed Program that introduces young people to possible careers in the health sciences.
EDINBURG (RAHC) CAMPUS
The RAHC Medical Research Division soon will open in Edinburg and will be the only facility of its type on the Texas/Mexico Border. Biomedical research related to diseases prevalent in South Texas and the Lower Rio Grande Valley will be conducted there.
