New Mexico State University
Introduction
While New Mexico was still a territory, 23 years before it was to become the 47th state of the United States,
the settlers of the Mesilla Valley recognized the need for an advanced educational system. This recognition,
and the energetic efforts of leading citizens, resulted in the founding of the Las Cruces College in 1888. The
territorial legislature of 1889 established the land-grant agricultural college and experiment station which
officially opened on January 21, 1890. During its first full academic year, the college became known as the
New Mexico College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts, the first degree-granting institution in the territory. In
1960, the growth and maturity of the college were formally recognized when the New Mexico Constitution
was amended to change the name of the institution to New Mexico State University. Since 1963, the
institution has held continuous accreditation status, at the doctoral level, by the Higher Learning Commission.
New Mexico State University, under the provisions of the Morrill Act of 1862 and subsequent federal
legislation, continues to provide a liberal and practical education for students and to sustain programs of
research, extension education, and public service. New Mexico State University is classified as a Carnegie
Doctoral/Research Universities-Extensive and is a member of the Hispanic Association of Colleges and
Universities (HACU).
New Mexico State University is the land grant university of the state of New Mexico. As a thriving center of
higher education, deeply rooted in the southwestern tradition, its role as a comprehensive university is
recognized throughout the state. New Mexico State University offers a wide variety of programs through the
Graduate School and the colleges: Agricultural, Consumer and Environmental Sciences, Arts and Sciences,
Business, Education, Engineering, and Health and Social Services. The 23 doctoral programs are limited
primarily to agriculture, education, engineering, and the sciences; the specialist in education degree is offered
in 4 study areas; the education doctorate degree is offered in 3 study areas; there are 56 master’s degree
programs and 89 baccalaureate degree programs. At its four branch community colleges, Alamogordo,
Carlsbad, Doña Ana and Grants, New Mexico State University offers academic, vocational/technical, and
continuing education programs. In accord with its land-grant mission, New Mexico State University provides
informal, off-campus educational programs through the Cooperative Extension Service. Through a statewide
network of 9 research facilities, the Agricultural Experiment Station conducts basic and applied research
supporting agriculture, natural resources management, environmental quality, and improved quality of life.
Overall responsibility for the university resides in an autonomous Board of Regents appointed by the Governor
of the State and confirmed by the State Senate. The Board delegates authority for the internal management
of the institution to the president. The faculty elects a Faculty Senate which has legislative jurisdiction over
policies affecting the academic mission of the university.

New Mexico Higher Education Department
(Formerly Known as the Commission on Higher Education for the State of New Mexico)

education: increasing access to our colleges and universities and coordinating efforts to build a highly
trained workforce and high-wage economy, thus expanding opportunities for all New Mexicans.

New Mexico State University
College of Agricultural, Consumer and Environmental Sciences
In 1889, the territorial legislature authorized the New Mexico Agricultural College and Agricultural Experiment Station at
Las Cruces. Today, the dean and chief administrative officer assumes the overall leadership of the three interrelated
components of the college: academic programs, Agricultural Experiment Station, and the Cooperative Extension Service..
The college’s academic programs offers 22 undergraduate majors (17 of which are not duplicated anywhere in New
Mexico) through 8 academic departments, 12 master’s degree programs and 3 Ph.D programs as well as being major
participants in three additional doctoral programs sponsored by multiple colleges. The college is home t approximately
1,500 undergraduate and 200 graduate students.
The Agricultural Experiment Station (AES) is a system of research faculty and staff from the College of Agricultural,
Consumer, and Environmental Sciences at NMSU based in Las Cruces or at one of 12 off-campus agricultural science
centers. State appropriations are used to conduct research in three overarching strategic goals and have a direct benefit
to the citizens of New Mexico: 1) Sustain agriculture and conserve natural resources, 2) Enhance NM community and
economic development, and 3) Invest in and develop our human capital. The AES strives to find answers needed by any
New Mexican whether commercial growers, urban gardeners, city planners, ranchers, or homeowners. Almost 80% of
appropriations are used to fund the equivalent of 199 faculty and staff spread over 310 permanent employees. Despite
the general economic downturn, AES continues to leverage state appropriations so that over the past 10 years the
Agricultural Experiment Station has consistently brought in approximately $2 from other sources for every state dollar
invested. Research also shows that for every one dollar invested in agricultural research approximately $10 dollars are
returned to society.
The Cooperative Extension Service is the community education arm of New Mexico State University. CES is a unique
federal, state, and county partnership that was enabled by the Smith-Lever Act of 1914 and constitutionally mandated in
New Mexico in 1915. Needs of New Mexicans have changed over the past 100 plus years, but CES maintains its relevance
and mission by listening to its clientele and providing up-to-date information to citizens through the state-both in rural
and urban communities. This effort involves over 319 faculty and staff in 54 offices around the state.
CES faculty members serve the state’s clientele in all 33 counties and many tribal areas in New Mexico. The subjects of
CES educational programs are the fabric of life – social development of young people, human nutrition, environmental
stewardship, economic development and community development. The most well-known CES programs are 4-H youth
development, agriculture and natural resources, community economic development, and family and consumer sciences
programs.
CES programs are grounded in research-based information and rely on NMSU statewide faculty members with specialty
expertise. In addition to expertise in nutrition, family and child development, agriculture, natural resources, and
economic development CES addresses emerging issues Such as extreme drought, catastrophic wildfires, food safety,
homeland security, financial mediation, public official training, workforce readiness, and health and wellbeing. Statewide
CES faculty members attract grant and contract funding to support educational programs throughout the state.

New Mexico State University
Honors College
New Mexico’s first Honors College was established in the Fall of 2004. The Honors College provides
motivated undergraduate students with opportunities to enrich their academic programs. Small classes
taught by master teachers engage Honors students in lively discussions and collaborative investigations of
interdisciplinary topics. The Honors College does not offer a degree, but supplements the degrees offered by
the university’s six academic colleges by awarding various levels of honors distinction – core honors, university
honors and distinction in university honors – to students who complete the prescribed honors track.
Graduate School
Although the first master’s degree was awarded in 1897, the Graduate School was not formally established
until 1956. The Graduate School offers 27 doctoral degrees, 56 master’s degrees, and 11 graduate certificates.
The dean and associate dean provide the leadership for the Graduate School. Graduate faculty involvement in
generation of academic policy and operating procedure is achieved primarily through the Graduate Council.

Budget and Finance
As a public institution, New Mexico State University is funded, in part, through an appropriation by the New
Mexico legislature and the governor. The state budget approval process authorizes general fund
appropriations as well as overall expenditure levels. General fund appropriations for Instruction and General
(I and G) are largely the result of a workload-based funding formula and are made as a one lump-sum
appropriation to each campus. In addition, line-item appropriations provide partial support for a number of
research and public service activities of the university including the Agricultural Experiment Station,
Cooperative Extension and the Department of Agriculture. The state also appropriates funds to New Mexico
State University on a project-by-project basis for capital improvements.

New Mexico State University
Research
Since its founding as New Mexico’s land-grant college in 1888, New Mexico State University has encouraged
and supported research and creative scholarly activity of its faculty and students. The National Science
Foundation ranks NMSU 3rd among High Hispanic Enrollment institutions nationally based on 2012 R&D
expenditures. Most early research followed mandates of the founding legislation of land-grant colleges by
generating knowledge useful in agriculture and engineering. Over time, however, research has expanded from
this focus on applied natural sciences to include all disciplines of the university. Today, research and creative
scholarly activities lead to basic scientific discoveries, as well as practical applications emanating from the
natural and social sciences, arts, humanities, business, education, and health sciences in addition to
engineering and agriculture. Faculty and staff engagement in research and creative scholarly activities enriches
academic programs for students, provides training and employment opportunities, and attracts externally
funded support to enhance university research, academic programs, and facilities.
To increase New Mexico State University’s capacity to respond to critical state and national needs requiring
interdisciplinary approaches, the university has identified the following core research areas:
•
•
•
•
Agricultural and Life Sciences, including Animal and Range Sciences; Biochemistry, Molecular Biology and Genetics;
Medical and Health Sciences; and Plant and Soil Sciences
Electrical and Computer Engineering and Computer Science
Space and Aerospace
Sustainability, including Energy and Biofuels; Environment and Ecology; and Water
More information is available at http://research.nmsu.edu/.
Interdisciplinary research among colleges is fostered by college administration and the Vice President for
Research.

Office of International and Border Programs
First established in 1972, the Office of International and Border Programs’ (IBP) primary task is to pursue the
comprehensive internationalization of the university. This is defined as “the conscious effort to integrate and
infuse international, intercultural, and global dimensions into the ethos and outcomes of postsecondary
education” (NAFSA Task Force on Internationalization). As one of the seven strategic goals included in the
Vision 2020 strategic plan, NMSU has made a laudable and serious commitment to “effectively prepare
students for a global society.” It is IBP’s responsibility to work across traditional boundaries and disciplines, in
constant collaboration with colleagues, departments, and community members, to achieve that goal. To
accomplish this, the Associate Provost for International and Border Programs is responsible for coordinating
all internationally-oriented programs, activities and services for both domestic and international students.
This includes oversight of the Office of Education Abroad (OEA), International Student and Scholar Services
(ISSS), the Center for English Language Programs (CELP) and the Confucius Institute (CI).
IBP’s vision is as follows: Our vision is to achieve a national reputation for delivering a diverse,
interdisciplinary education where students understand, and have the ability to live and work with, people of
various cultures, histories and languages. We must graduate individuals with the knowledge and skills to
compete globally. We see a future where every student and faculty member has an international experience,
where we prepare the next generation of leaders to meet global challenges.
IBP’s mission states that, “We see a future where every student and faculty member has an international
experience, where we prepare the next generation of leaders to meet global challenges. IBP’s mission is to
lead with an international focus in teaching, research, learning, and service, all integral to the mission of New
Mexico State University. Our charge is to challenge the imagination, foster ideas, and provide leadership in
international education.”
