North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University (N.C. A&T) is a public, doctoral research, land-grant institution, and has been the largest historically Black university in the country for the past decade.

With an enrollment of more than 14,000 students in fall of 2024, the university offers 59 undergraduate degree programs, 35 master’s programs, and 11 doctoral programs.

It is America’s top producer of Black graduates in Engineering and Agricultural Science bachelor’s programs, as well as a top five producer in numerous additional disciplines.

It also holds Carnegie’s earned credential in Community Engagement and the Association of Public and Land-Grant Universities (APLU) Innovation and Economic Prosperity designation.

With an annual economic impact of $2.4 billion, N.C. A&T plays a vital role as a higher-education economic driver in North Carolina’s Piedmont Triad region and across a state that is ranked No.

1 in the nation as best for business by the CNBC financial network.

N.C. A&T has grown steadily and substantially over the past decade, expanding its enrollment by nearly 3,300 students, its annual research and sponsored program awards by $85 million, and further developing its academic enterprise.

Guided by a succession of visionary strategic plans, the university has relentlessly pursued and achieved ambitious goals on its path to creating a new model of what a 21st-century, HBCU land-grant research university can be.

Its current plan, Preeminence 2030 : North Carolina A&T Blueprint, was approved by the Board of Trustees in February 2023 and will help build a significantly larger research enterprise and economic footprint and strengthen student outcomes over the next seven years.

The university’s dynamic presence is driving an economic rebirth in East Greensboro, attracting businesses, creating jobs, and spurring a construction boom throughout the area.

Among its own facilities projects, A&T over the past five years has opened the 150,000-square-foot Student Center, the $90 million Harold L.

Martin Sr. Engineering Research and Innovation Complex, and an Extension and Research Pavilion on its 500-acre University Farm.

Additional projects underway include a 450-bed residence hall and the Urban and Community Food Complex.
