The architecture of UTEP is from Bhutan. There are only a couple of buildings that don't have that architecture (the ones from waaaaay back in the day). They changed the architecture to a Bhutanese style when a former President's wife went to Bhutan & was inspired it. UTEP has close relations with Bhutan because of the architecture & a couple months ago the Prince of Bhutan came and visited.
