TAMU aspires to excellence in all that it does. The myriad compliance requirements that span TAMU significantly impact activities to:

Educate future leaders;
Conduct innovative research;
Target outreach and service that benefit the public;
Extend support services that sustain and move forward core TAMU activities.

TAMU established a University-wide Compliance Program to enhance ethical practices and strengthen compliance with applicable laws, policies, rules, procedures, and agreements.

The University-wide Compliance Program is designed to expand understanding of ethics and compliance requirements and collaboratively initiate better solutions to manage those responsibilities. Teams form communication and feedback loops to integrate ethics and compliance concepts at all levels and to measure progress. By linking with TAMU’s Enterprise Risk Management Program, the Compliance Program can better plan and respond to significant ethics and compliance issues.

Key to a successful Compliance Program is recognition that individuals are responsible for ethical conduct and compliance in carrying out daily activities. In answering the call to excellence, individual honor and accountability carry forward to daily activities, enabling TAMU to lead with integrity.
