Texas A&M International University (TAMIU) is located in Laredo, Texas, along the U.S.-Mexico border, approximately 150 miles south of San Antonio. The campus spans 300 acres and features modern Southwest-style architecture with native limestone buildings and drought-resistant landscaping adapted to the semi-arid climate. Established in 1970 as a branch of Texas A&I University and joining the Texas A&M University System in 1989, TAMIU operates as a public Hispanic-serving institution offering undergraduate and graduate programs. The university maintains strong academic programs in business, education, and nursing, while also featuring specialized offerings in international trade and border studies that leverage its geographic location. Most first-year students reside in on-campus housing complexes, and the university competes in NCAA Division II athletics as the Dustdevils.
