    ABOUT THE UNIVERSITY

    Chartered in 1917 but not opened until 1925 because of America's entry into World War I, the University is the oldest continuously operating public institution of higher learning in South Texas. Shortly after beginning life as South Texas State Teachers College, its role was expanded to embrace a wider array of programs. As its mission has expanded, its name has changed to reflect its wider scope. Its first name change, to Texas College of Arts and Industries, came in 1929. In 1967 the name changed to Texas A&I University. The University became a member of the Texas A&M University System in 1989 and in 1993 changed its name to Texas A&M University-Kingsville to reflect that membership.

    Texas A&M-Kingsville is South Texas' greatest university, offering more academic programs and degrees, providing better learning and living facilities, doing more research, awarding more scholarships and producing more successful graduates than any other college or university in the region.

    Texas A&M-Kingsville seeks to provide quality undergraduate and graduate programs for students of all ages through a judicious blend of liberal and career education programs. The emphasis is on providing an intellectually challenging education reflecting high standards of academic performance. Texas A&M-Kingsville is dedicated to serving an ethnically and culturally diverse population. The University is committed to its mission of teaching, research, and service in South Texas for the advancement of knowledge and of regional development.

    Most of Texas A&M-Kingsville's approximately 6,357 students come from South Texas, but there is wide diversity in the population, with students from 40 states and 35 countries. The student body is split almost equally between men and women. About 80 percent of students are undergraduates. Ethnically, the campus reflects the demographics of the area, with 69 percent of the students Hispanic, 15 percent white, and 4 percent African American. About 7 percent are international students.

    Texas A&M-Kingsville recently instituted a new 2022 - 2027 strategic plan. This strategic plan was carefully created by cross-sections of the university community through multiple focus group meetings with faculty, staff, students, alumni, and the Texas A&M University-Kingsville Foundation Board. Student Success serves as the guiding principle for Strategic Plan 2027. It should be the mission of everyone at the university that every student who walks into our front door leaves with a diploma or certificate in hand. To that end, every goal and objective in Strategic Plan 2027 is rooted in tangible target strategies which will assure that Student Success will be an achievable objective, and not just a pipe dream. More information on the strategic plan can be found on the Texas A&M University-Kingsville website(link is external) .
