Pipeline to Graduate Studies at Texas A&M University

At West Texas A&M University (WTAMU), we recognize the need for our talented and motivated students to build on their education, so they can help the Texas Panhandle build a strong, more robust local economy. We have over 40 exceptional and highly competitive graduate programs here at WTAMU. Because we are invested in our students and our community, we are partnering with other colleges and schools within our system’s flagship, Texas A&M University (TAMU), to create a Pipeline to Graduate Studies program for students to pursue graduate education in programs that we may not offer here at the Graduate School.

TAMU Pipeline Coordinator at WTAMU:
Kimberly Hanna, Creative and Communications Manager

Student participants in the Pipeline to Graduate Studies will work with the TAMU Pipeline Coordinator at WTAMU, Kimberly Hanna, to identify recruitment opportunities in his or her desired field of study as well as other Pipeline initiatives that may be beneficial to the student’s educational goals. Jonathan Cordova in the WTAMU Office of National Competitive Scholarships will assist students with the creation and refinement of their admissions materials.

Please review the graduate opportunities below, and if you’re interested, we encourage you to reach out to the TAMU Pipeline Coordinator for personal assistance.
