Chartered in 1917 but not opened until 1925 due to the United States’ entry into WWI, TAMUK is the oldest continuously operating institution of higher learning in South Texas. Beginning as South Texas State Teachers College, its name changed as its role expanded to provide a wider variety of academic programs. This first name change was in 1929 when it became Texas College of Arts and Industries. The second, in 1967, when it became Texas A&I University. Four years after becoming a member of the Texas A&M University System in 1989, the University’s name changed to Texas A&M University - Kingsville to reflect that membership.
TAMUK offers more academic programs and degrees; provides better learning and living accommodations; does more research; awards more scholarships; and produces more successful graduates than any other college or university in the region.
