Growing capacity and healthcare careers
Round Rock Campus is home to 5,000 students in rapidly growing Williamson County. Opened in 2010, the full service campus offers degrees in health sciences (nursing, sonography, radiology, medical laboratory technology, surgical technology, and more), biotechnology, automotive technology, building construction technology, welding technology, accounting, computer information technology, astronomy, and transferable core curriculum courses.
