The NMSU Impact
Everyone gets an opportunity to shine. Everyone has a chance to hone and showcase their talents. Everyone has a home at NMSU from which they can launch their lives.
Why? Because everyone can change the world.
On Tomorrow’s Leaders
Genius has no one birthplace. Talent doesn’t care about economic brackets. Leadership comes from everywhere.
At NMSU, we are dedicated to providing opportunities for every student to change their lives, their families, and their future.
At NMSU, we open the door to opportunity. Our students walk through it.
Did you know? Studio art major Citlali Delgado was the first NMSU student to earn a competitive spot in the Yale Norfolk School of Art’s Summer Residency Program. Last summer, she joined 24 upcoming seniors from all over the country in an intensive six-week program.
On the Future
What do our students do with those opportunities? They change the world.
They teach. They heal others. They innovate and engineer. They inspire. They lead.
When people are given a chance, they can change the world. That’s the NMSU promise.
Did you know? More than 60 researchers from NMSU’s colleges have been appointed to serve on scientific journal editorial boards, according to a list compiled by the NMSU Office of Research, Creativity and Economic Development.
Meet this Amazing Aggie
“The more I applied myself and the more I got involved, the quicker I found what I wanted to do.”
Colin received two endowed scholarships established by NMSU alumni and interned at the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) in Atlanta, Georgia. “I want to help people feel confident that they’re managing their money wisely, whether they’re with a big bank or a small one. That’s something everyone can benefit from.”
Colin Bell ’24, Bachelor of Business Administration in Finance
