President's Statement

For more than 100 years, Texas Tech has placed a high value on relationships and providing our students with a personal experience. That culture is not possible without our faculty and staff, who are at the heart of what makes this university a special place. Family, community, and an environment conducive to student and employee success will continue to be central to our mission as we look toward the next century at Texas Tech.

Employee Comment

Working at this institution, you feel like you are part of a family. I know my peers genuinely care about me as I do about them. I also am able to have a good work life balance and not miss anything in the lives of my small children thanks to the flexibility provided to me at TTU.
