An engine of talent and growth
Texas’ sunny $2.4 trillion economy is the eighth-largest worldwide, ahead of New York, according to the Texas Economic Development Corporation. As a dynamic entrepreneurial hub and one of the top three states in the U.S. for the most Fortune 500 companies, Texas is home to a variety of industries, from health care and energy to finance and technology, driving economic growth and employment opportunities. One of only four states in the U.S. with more than a million college students, Texas is the second-most diverse state in the U.S. In addition, a relatively lower cost of living (compared to its counterparts on the East and West coasts), the friendliness that characterizes the Lone Star State and the thriving food and entertainment scene make Texas the perfect place to pursue your educational and career goals.
