Purpose
The Association of Texas Graduate Schools (ATGS), founded in 1951 in Dallas, Texas with 59 members, seeks to advance graduate study in the state of Texas by providing a forum for the discussion of ideals, aims, and problems in graduate studies faced by institutions of higher learning throughout our state. We hold regular meetings annually, at one of our member institutions, to share our experiences in our different approaches to the challenge of providing a meaningful graduate education for our students.
