Texas A&M at Qatar works to serve Qatar and to enrich its greatest natural resource — its people. We are helping Qatar achieve its National Vision 2030, making fundamental contributions to teaching, engineering and research in Qatar and the region. And as a branch campus and valuable part of Texas A&M University, we share its commitment to the core values of integrity, excellence, leadership, loyalty, respect and selfless service. We demonstrate this through frequent collaborations with our main campus that benefit our students, our faculty and our staff, and these collaborations are leveraged to benefit our partners here in Qatar.
Guiding our way is our new Strategic Plan for 2016-2021, which blends the goals of Vision 2020 and Qatar National Vision 2030. Through its four strategic imperatives — teaching and lifelong learning, research, engagement and organizational excellence — this plan is the result of a yearlong process that will guide our journey over the next five years as we maintain and further develop our position as one of the foremost educational institutions in the world.
Texas A&M at Qatar continues to support its mission and vision by serving as a hub for research, teaching, service, outreach and developing leaders. Current and former students at Texas A&M at Qatar are the most visible expression of the branch campus’ success, proving themselves as Qatar’s new generation of engineering leaders, while the branch campus’ faculty are creating and disseminating new knowledge to solve relevant, real-world challenges in Qatar and the world. In everything it does, Texas A&M at Qatar seeks to be a valuable contributor to the State of Qatar as it moves toward the goals set out in Qatar National Vision 2030.

The famous father-son Mexican architect team Legoretta+Legoretta designed the Texas A&M Engineering Building. Construction of the building took one year and 10 months to complete and cost $150 million USD. The Texas A&M Engineering Building is more than 55,000 sq. meters or 595,000 sq. feet. It consists of two distinct parts, a research and an academic wing. Please click the image to view the virtual tour.
The main entrance to the Texas A&M Engineering Building features a solid bronze door. Metal Artwork in Saudi Arabia, a company famous for designing palace doors, produced the door. The door weighs 2.5 tons and when the main entrance was being completed, the door had to be installed in one piece by forklift. The gigantic door reflects the greatness of what is happening inside.
The student lounge is divided into two areas, one for male students and one for female students. Each room has a plasma TV with the latest in gaming technology. The common area of the student lounge contains large tables for group studying, as well as two foosball tables for when a quick break from studying is needed.

The Texas A&M University in Doha, Qatar is a great place. Yes, it's the Middle East. But, they have instructors there from the United States who really try to educate the students. They naturally specialize in Engineering. I use to work there and absolutely loved my time in Qatar.
