Developmental Studies

Dr. Ali Esmaeili, Dean

Welcome to the home page for the Division of Developmental Studies.

The Developmental Studies Program assists students in acquiring the necessary skills to pass the Texas Higher Education Assesment (THEA) and successfully continue college level study. Furthermore, the Developmental Studies Faculty strives to create a sensitive environment that is conducive to learning by providing academic, personal, and professional support to the students, staff and faculty of South Texas College, as well as the community.

The Developmental Studies Program accomplishes this mission through developmental courses in Reading, English, Mathematics, and College Success. In addition to the offered coursework, counseling, tutoring, study skill seminars and workshops, and computer-assisted instruction are also available.

The Developmental Program responds dynamically to the multicultural Student body and community it serves and takes pride in providing equal educational opportunities.
