Our Mission & Values

Texas A&M University has placed the value of the campus environment at its core and embarked on a campus-wide plan designed to ensure all students feel welcomed, valued, and affirmed.  The Department of Multicultural Services (DMS) facilitates steady progress toward institutional plans through actively and intentionally engaging in social integration practices benefiting the retention and graduation of students, student development, and student affairs contributions.

DMS has a mission to provide multiple developmental experiences to cultivate meaningful engagement, foster a culture where students can thrive, and develop students’ capacities to work productively and collaboratively with others in preparation for an increasingly complex world.

DMS supports all students along their journey to self-awareness, and role models and commits time and energy in contribution to the Texas A&M Core Values.
