Welcome to the Division of Academic Affairs at Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi! Despite tough economic times, academics at Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi have never been in better shape.
We’re growing and hope to have our largest student body yet in the fall. We are expecting to surpass 10,000 students. Enrollments in our new mechanical engineering program are surpassing projections. Our new nursing building has been completed. It is gorgeous and will help us do an even better job of training students in high demand fields in nursing and the health sciences. The new Michael and Karen O’Connor building, the future home for the College of Business, is also moving closer to an expected completion date in January. And researchers from across the university, especially those at our Harte Research Institute for Gulf of Mexico Studies and our National Spill Control School, are working hard to help address the problems resulting from the Deepwater Horizon oil spill.
To continue and improve on the great undergraduate education we offer students, we are instituting a new program, named First Year Islanders, to promote student learning and student success through reflective teaching practice. First Year Islander faculty are committed to continually researching and adopting best practices to make instruction as effective as possible. And they are working closely with the Division of Student Affairs and academic support staff across the campus to make sure that we are giving every student what he or she needs to learn and succeed at the university. If you’re a new (or even a returning) student, be sure to visit CASA, our Center for Academic and Student Achievement, to see what we can do to help you succeed.
Major responsibilities of the office of the provost include:
