Top of PageGraduate School
The Panhandle of Texas is known for its open spaces, big skies, and expansive vistas, and the Graduate School at West Texas A&M University reflects its roots in the geography of the region. We believe that graduate education should direct our focus to new horizons, confront us with different views and perspectives, and entice us to follow paths beyond what we can see. Education is not an event or an experience but a lifelong journey in which the traveler never reaches the end of the road. Instead, there is always another destination of discovery.
