King Ranch Institute
The birth of the King Ranch Institute for Ranch Management was to commemorate the 150th Anniversary of the King Ranch in 2003. In keeping with their long history of leadership and philanthropy, King Ranch and its family and friends decided to create and endow the King Ranch Institute for Ranch Management in collaboration with Texas A&M University-Kingsville. The program is designed for a higher level of study, and emphasizes the recruitment of mature and experienced students who can be trained for the complexities of managing large ranches today. In the fast paced and progressive world in which we now live, this program will help to ensure that ranching remains a vital part of our lives, and that ranchers will stay on the land. We believe that our students will be some of the future managers that will carry this industry into the 21st Century. They will go on to progressively manage our country’s rangeland and wildlife resources, will produce livestock as part of our nation’s food supply, and most importantly, will influence the lives of people on ranches and in the communities that they support. We also believe that the KRIRM will have a strong and positive impact on the ranching industry of South Texas, our nation, and even the world.
