Galveston College’s Emergency Medical Services program was honored with the UTMB Excellence in Interprofessional Education Award on April 6, 2026.
 
The award was presented to GC’s EMS program for its participation with UTMB throughout the year, including the coordination of two Disaster Day drills with UTMB and other community partners.
 
“The partnership with UTMB’s Office of Interprofessional Education and Practice, and the community partner award recognizing Galveston College EMS, reinforces what we believe: the best patient care happens when professionals learn from one another, train together and respond as one team in service to our community,” said Scott Miles, EMS program director.
