研究参与办公室（矿石）是TAMU-CC的研究和社区参与中心，通过多种项目和战略帮助实现和增强大学的公共影响。 矿石 provides a growing collection of capabilities and resources that empower faculty and staff to develop a strong culture of innovation as well as promote TAMU-CC’s growth as an intellectual capital in our region and beyond.

本局与社区持份者紧密合作，以确定相关的需求和机会，并促进与适当的大学智力资源的互利联系。  The 研究参与办公室 seeks to develop and support a community of practice within TAMU-CC that’s focused on making an impact by leaving a legacy in the community. 我们知道，这可以通过研究、教学、服务等方式实现，我们希望支持和授权人们这样做。
