The education of students for effective participation in local, state, regional, national, and international societies. The search for new knowledge through research and its applications. The provision of a comprehensive outreach program designed to meet the changing needs of the larger community. Programs necessary to adequately address the major needs and problems of capable students who have experienced limited access to education. Integration of state-of-the-art technology into all aspects of University functions. Alabama A&M University, in cooperation with businesses, industrial and governmental agencies, and other institutions, provides a laboratory where theory is put into practice in a productive environment.

Student Responses to Review Topic: Am I Enjoying Being Here

  • Keith from Birmingham, AL
  • Feb-04-2011 I am a current student here

    I am very much enjoying myself!!! Part of that is due to the fact that when I first arrived I was extremely introverted. However, as the time wore on and I began to meet new people and become acquainted with the campus, attended events, indulged in the school spirit, etc. I was able to not only experience a level of social freedom but also personal development.

    For the most part, I enjoy the A&M campus. I don't really hang out much because I'm usually in my room doing my work. I really enjoy my classes though.

    I really love my school! Although the campus is small for a University it is very nice and historical. The people here are very helpful with the transition from high school to college. I love the activities there are on campus, there are so many things to do on campus its overwhelming. I am really getting the college experience.
