Texas A & M University, College Station : Overview, Courses, Scholarships & Rankings
About Texas A & M University
At midnight before big games, Kyle Field comes alive for Midnight Yell, and the 12th Man spirit is hard to miss. Texas A&M blends a proud Corps of Cadets heritage with a friendly campus where classmates hold doors and nod hello. The Academic Building's dome, the Century Tree, and the Albritton bell tower anchor a quad that quickly feels like home.
Known for strength in engineering, agriculture and life sciences, business, and geology, the university leans into hands-on learning and problem solving. Student life moves between loud traditions and quiet moments like Silver Taps. Former Texas governor Rick Perry is an Aggie, as is astronaut Mike Fossum. College Station and nearby Bryan rally around campus, from research ties to late-night eateries. And some swear a walk under the Century Tree brings luck.
