Support for Veterans
The Texas A&M Transportation Institute (TTI) welcomes and supports employees who serve or have served in U.S. state or national military units. TTI provides employment protections, rights and benefits to employees who serve our country. Federal laws, state laws, and Texas A&M University System and TTI policies and procedures apply to all leave for military service. The A&M System established a Systemwide Military-Friendly Initiative for its 12 universities and eight state agencies.
Employee Assistance

Please call (979) 317-2055 and tell us who you may like to talk to, and we will help you locate a mentor.
- Veterans are provided access to the Employee Assistance Program at Texas A&M University, which is a confidential counseling service provided to staff and eligible dependents who may be experiencing personal or work place concerns.
- The Veterans Administration operates a program that allows universities with veteran-students to obtain VA-funded, student-veteran workers within certain guidelines. Please review the Student Work-Study Allowance Program’s guidelines and application.
