Research
Texas A&M stands today as one of the largest research universities in the United States. Our faculty-researchers generated expenditures of more than $1.148 billion in FY 2021, all while enhancing undergraduate and graduate education by providing hands-on research.
The Research@Texas A&M website demonstrates research advances, impacts, and successes from Texas A&M’s colleges, divisions, units, campuses, and agencies.
Research is at our core
As one of only 66 members of the prestigious Association of American Universities (AAU), an association of leading public and private research universities in the United States and Canada, Texas A&M boasts some of the top programs in academic research and scholarship. Texas A&M is one of only 17 institutions in the nation to hold the triple designation as a land-grant, sea-grant, and space-grant university and is an active member of the Association of Public and Land-grant Universities (APLU) — a research, policy, and advocacy organization dedicated to strengthening and advancing the work of public universities in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico.
