Note: This metric shows how much an institution spends per FTE student to produce research outcomes. This is an outcome that will need to increase as WT works toward becoming a Regionally Responsive Research University.
To support students who seek graduate education, WT offers more than 40 exceptional and highly competitive graduate programs. It should be noted that we want the exceptional undergraduates at WT to have access to graduate opportunities at WT and at other universities, as best fit student need and availability. To that end, WT is partnering with each college and school at Texas A&MUniversity (TAMU) for the purpose of developing a mutually beneficial graduate pipeline relationship to bring highly qualified WT students to TAMU master’s and doctoral programs, especially in areas where WT does not have similar programs. In doing so, these college-to-university agreements 1) enhance collaboration and develop a mutually beneficial relationship between the associated TAMU college or school and WT; 2) support capacity for graduate study (master’s and doctoral); 3) provide academically qualified WT students a pathway to graduate programs; and 4) mutually improve student opportunities at both institutions. 23
