COSE Reorganization

Establishing Two Colleges

Texas State University has grown both its research and enrollment precipitously over the past several years, particularly in science and engineering disciplines. To facilitate continued growth and success and after significant internal consultation, Academic Affairs has developed a plan to divide the current College of Science and Engineering into a newly reestablished and an inaugural college: the College of Science and the Ingram College of Engineering.
