College of graduate Studies The major objective of the Graduate College is to offer education beyond the baccalaureate level to those men and women who aspire to become intellectual leaders in various professional and in various fields of teaching and research. Upon completion of the normal curricula or after some business experience, many students decide to continue their education in their chosen field. These students are placed in the graduate school under the Dean of Graduate Studies where the professors have had adequate training and experience and are well qualified to administer further theory. A graduate may receive an advanced degree in most curricula upon completion of the advanced courses and other requirements. Texas A AA University has a growing graduate college with excellent professors in every field of study. Due to this growth in graduate studies, the University has received many grants and fellowships from industry to aid in student and faculty research. Cost of research projects at Texas A AA University runs in excess of $15 million, much of which is spent on projects in which graduate students participate. Facilities for research at A AA are outstanding. There are 150 laboratories at the main plant in College Station and in field sites across the state. Some of the research facilities cannot be duplicated in any university in the Southwest. 25

Zems JlUritiutt Academy The Texas Maritime Academy offers an opportunity for the high school graduate and college freshman to qualify as an officer in the United States Merchant Marine, to earn a commission as Ensign in the United States Naval Re¬ serve, and to earn a Bachelor of Science degree in marine engineering or marine transportation. The Texas Maritime Academy program begins with the freshman year on the A M campus at College Station. The remaining three of the four-year course are spent on the newly developed Texas Maritime Academy student campus in Galveston. To supplement classroom instruction the Texas Maritime Academy student spends three summers aboard the academy training ship, Texas Clipper, in training cruises to ports of call in various parts of the world. The Texas Maritime Academy is the only one of six maritime colleges in the United States dedicated to serving the maritime industry on the Gulf Coast. This industry, as a center of our foreign trade and travel, is a vital and dynamic part of Texas and the nation ' s economy, as well as an essential element of the United States defense pro¬ gram. In the two fields of instruction available, the Marine Transportation course is designed to familiarize cadets with ship operation and management and places particular emphasis on the economic and business aspects of the mari¬ time industry and foreign trade. The Maritime Engineering course, which is closely related to mechanical engineering, emphasizes the design, op¬ eration, and maintenance of conventional and nuclear fueled marine power plants. The student also receives instruction in the humanities and social sciences to qualify for his Bachelor ' s degree. 24
