Texas A&M University (Texas A&M), a member of the Association of American Universities (AAU) and Association of Public and Land-grant Universities (APLU), and the flagship within The Texas A&M University System, invites applications and nominations for the position of President. This moment calls for an experienced, visionary, and politically savvy leader to guide the university during a time of tremendous growth and greater national and global prominence. The President will embody the university's mission and core values of excellence, integrity, leadership, loyalty, respect, and selfless service.

As one of the largest public institutions in the nation, Texas A&M has become a national leader in research, academic excellence, and service, while fulfilling its land-, sea-, and space-grant mission with over $1.6 billion in annual research expenditures. Located in the thriving city of College Station, on a campus covering nearly 5,200 acres, Texas A&M has over 4,300 faculty members – 56 of whom are National Academy members – and over 81,000 students, with over 2,300 represented in the Corps of Cadets.

A powerhouse of innovation, Texas A&M became the first university in Texas to surpass $1 billion in total research expenditures in fiscal year 2020 and continues to generate at this scale annually. Texas A&M has risen to No. 12 nationally among public institutions and No. 1 among public universities in Texas in the Wall Street Journal rankings. This recognition follows another strong showing in the US News & World Report 2025-26 rankings, ranking Texas A&M as No. 21 among all public universities and No. 13 for Best Value among public institutions, reflecting its dedication to providing accessible, high-quality education.

The next president will bring the leadership needed to advance Texas A&M's academic, research, and service missions—while embodying the values, traditions, and spirit that define the Aggie community. Several key opportunities and challenges will shape the agenda for the university's next leader:

• Embrace and exemplify the Aggie spirit, championing Texas A&M's mission of impact, service, and excellence;
