The mission of Aggies Go Global (AGG) is to provide students with international opportunities and experiences to stimulate their educational, professional, and interpersonal development.
AGG is actively addressing student-identified needs by working to cultivate and enhance cultural awareness by collaborating with globally experienced campus and community members. This commitment to augmenting international experiences is fulfilled through inclusion of the diverse group of students at NMSU. AGG program is committed to serving qualified students with documented disability in accordance with NMSU policy.

Aggies Go Global supports NMSU students at all levels spanning across all majors, departments and colleges.
Program Funding
AGG can provide assistance with travel costs for international experiences that are not for class credit such as internships, research, conferences, or volunteering. Funding awards are based on what the student seeks to gain, personally and professionally, from their international experience, the work the student has put towards additional funding, and their plan to bring their experiences back to the NMSU community.
