　　About the University

　　Texas A&M University-Central Texas (A&M-Central Texas) was established in 2009 as an upper-level undergraduate (junior and senior level classes only) and graduate institution within the Texas A&M University System. In 2010, the U.S. Army donated 600+ acres of land for our campus, which has three buildings and a fourth set to break ground in 2024.

　　A&M-Central Texas is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges & Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC), and COBA is now AACSB accredited.

　　A&M-Central Texas is located on the southern edge of Killeen, TX, a city of over 150,000 and adjacent to Fort Cavazos, the largest Army installation in the world. Killeen is about an hour north of Austin and just a few miles west of the I-35 corridor, one of North America's fastest-growing trans-metropolitan regions. The area is known for its lower cost of living, friendly people, and the ability to choose one’s lifestyle due to the diversity of the area and ease of travel (mile a minute on average).

　　The student body is one of the most diverse in the state, and the university was recently designated as a Hispanic-serving institution. COBA students generally classify as non-traditional, with a substantial number working part- or full-time. Many students are military-affiliated (active duty, spouse, veteran, and other dependents).

　　All positions are security-sensitive. Applicants are subject to a criminal history investigation, and employment is contingent upon the institution’s verification of credentials and/or other information required by the institution’s procedures, including the completion of the criminal history check.
