Program Benefits
- Smaller student-faculty ratios in math and science courses, which build the foundation in engineering.
- Substantial financial savings!
Engineering students in the Engineering Academy program are charged tuition and fees by the institution through which each course is registered. Texas A&M coursework is registered in absentia which allows for a reduction in fees for services not used by students enrolled in a course conducted away from the Texas A&M campus in College Station. - Automatic admission to the first choice engineering major at the end of the second semester for engineering
students who earn a minimum 3.75 cumulative grade point average (CGPA) at both Midland
College and Texas A&M and who complete the required coursework.
- Participation in all student services, student activities, student organizations, etc., and to the fullest extent possible at both institutions.
