The Autonomous University of Tamaulipas (in Spanish: "Universidad Autónoma de Tamaulipas, UAT") is a Mexican public university based in Victoria, Tamaulipas, but with several campuses across the state.

History

It was founded on 30 October 1950 at the port of Tampico as "Educación Profesional de Tampico, A.C." (Tampico's Professional Education), a civil organization that sponsored a Faculty of Law and a Faculty of Medicine that were later incorporated into a public school under the auspices of the National Autonomous University of Mexico. On 5 November 1972 it was recognized as an autonomous university.
