Texas A&M University at Galveston- Enjoy the scenic views of one of our sister campuses in Galveston who specializes in marine life and maritime studies.

Aquarium Pyramid – Discover one of the largest aquariums in the Southwest, featuring a wide variety of marine life including seals, penguins, jellyfish, and sharks.

Rainforest Pyramid – Immerse yourself in the diverse ecosystems of the Americas, Africa, and Asia, surrounded by exotic plants and animals native to tropical rainforests.

Participants will also enjoy lunch at the Moody Gardens Food Court. Students who register to attend by Friday, September 5th, will have their lunch covered by DMS.

This trip offers Texas A&M students a unique opportunity to engage with marine and rainforest environments through direct observation and exploration. If you have any questions, feel free to contact Vic Norris at vicnorris@tamu.edu.

Department of Multicultural Services

The Department of Multicultural Services (DMS) is located in the Memorial Student Center (MSC).  The department provides students with social integration opportunities through holistic engagement and development. Every student brings their own experiences and goals that guide their behavior, values that orient and drive their commitments, and ways their experiences, norms, and values are communicated.  The department’s transition, persistence, and skill development opportunities engage and support students in becoming and remaining incorporated in the intellectual and social life of the university which results in their academic and personal success on campus and beyond.  Whether just getting started, looking to stay on track, or wanting to grow skills, we offer programs to help students adjust, connect, and reach their goals. From transition support to workshops and hands-on learning, we’re focused on helping students foster authentic and meaningful connections, build confidence, stay motivated, and thrive as members of the Aggie family.
