Texas Woman’s University is breaking ground on a new center that will help fill vital career gaps in the healthcare workforce.

"I cannot underscore that enough, this idea that we really need to constantly think about what, what are the new needs. So we have population growth. It demands a different type of service, it demands a different way of thinking. And so this is, I think something that we have a track record of doing in many different ways and, and that really is critical for the future,” said Feyten.

This vision was part of the proposal to the state lawmakers in 2021, when TWU made a request for funding during the regular legislative session. The center also will spur collaborative programming among the university’s five colleges, with a specific goal to graduate 30% more nursing and health care professionals. This goal is in support the state’s plan to produce more health professionals amid a state-wide shortage post pandemic.
