What Is Citizens for Good?

Citizens for Good is Texas A&M’s investment in preparing students to become engaged citizens through experiences rooted in character, knowledge, skills, and a service mindset.

Faculty and staff are essential to that mission.

Rather than creating new requirements, Citizens for Good highlights and connects the outstanding work already happening across campus, making it easier for students to discover meaningful opportunities while demonstrating the full value of a Texas A&M education.

Why It Matters

Your impact becomes visible. Citizens for Good shows how your courses, programs, and research build civic readiness, and how the Aggie Core Values are lived in and beyond the classroom.

Students leave ready. Employers value civic readiness. A verified digital badge gives students evidence of how they think, engage, serve, and lead, not only what they studied.

Many students are drawn to Museum Studies because of Texas A&M's Core Value of Selfless Service. In my classes, students regularly engage in projects that connect their coursework with real community needs. These experiences have reinforced my belief that service-based, high-impact learning gives students meaningful ways to contribute to projects of public significance and engage with communities beyond the classroom.
