Texas A&M University at Qatar
[7] The Qatar Foundation was started by then-Emir Shiekh Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani and his wife and mother of the current Emir Sheikha Moza bint Nasser.The campus was opened as part of Qatar's "massive venture to import elite higher education from the United States to Doha using the oil and natural-gas riches of the tiny Persian Gulf nation".[7] In February 2024, the Texas A&M University Board of Regents voted to close the Qatar campus in a multi-year shut down process.[8][9] The 2014 agreement states that TAMU and TAMUQ are responsible for selecting and supervising all faculty and staff, admitting, enrolling, and instructing students, developing plans to ensure the university satisfies the terms of the agreement, and designing and implementing the school's academic curricula and programs.The Qatar Foundation purchases and owns all property, pays salaries, and reimburses expenses to Texas A&M for its campus in Education City.[7] According to the agreement, the Qatar Foundation is responsible for all financial aid awarded to international, non-U.S. citizen undergraduate students at TAMUQ.
