Dell Family’s $1B Gift Spurs AI-Driven UT Austin Health Campus
Michael and Susan Dell’s latest $750 million donation pushes their total UT Austin giving to $1 billion, funding the UT Dell Campus for Advanced Research and the UT Dell Medical Center on a 300+ acre site in Northwest Austin. The plan includes integrating AI into care, linking UT Dell with MD Anderson cancer care, and expanding undergraduate scholarships and the university’s supercomputing center, with a 300–500 bed hospital slated to open in 2030 and phased program growth through 2032; this donation will not replace Dell Seton, which focuses on emergencies.
