Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi (TAMU-CC) is a doctoral research university in Corpus Christi, Texas (United States), and part of the Texas A&M University System. It describes itself as a Hispanic and Minority Serving institution and as "the Island University": according to the university, it is the only university in the country located on its own island, on the Texas Gulf Coast.
