THE MARINE & MARITIME CAMPUS
OF TEXAS A&M UNIVERSITY
Texas A&M University at Galveston is the marine and maritime branch campus of Texas A&M University which educates and graduates students in science, business, engineering, liberal arts and marine transportation. We are driving the blue economy in the Gulf Coast Region and are a critical contributor to Texas A&M's rare land-, sea-, space-grant mission.
Texas A&M-Galveston is also home to the Texas A&M Maritime Academy, one of six state maritime academies and the only one in the southern United States, which trains over 400 cadets annually for maritime service and employment worldwide.
WHERE YOU BELONG
FOLLOW YOUR CALLING. FUEL YOUR PASSION.
Aggies value the individual talents, interests and dreams that make us unique. With 20+ degrees and 70+ professional and student organizations, you can do YOU at Texas A&M University at Galveston.
Through the Texas A&M Maritime Academy program, deck and engine license cadet candidates must accrue time at sea before they graduate. Time is earned during summer sea term journeys after freshman, sophomore and junior years. Cadets travel around the world, gaining vital hands-on experience in operating a ship, dealing with port traffic, and build other crucial maritime skills.
GIVING & PARTNERSHIP OPPORTUNITIES
Texas A&M University at Galveston is of, for and by the sea. Our island campus is the perfect setting to study all facets of the blue economy. We are committed to building upon our traditional partnerships with industry, former students, our local community, and state, national and global groups to enhance our impact on the marine and maritime professions.
