Economic Impact Report
New Mexico State University has long been known as a major economic engine for the State of New Mexico. And this economic engine continues to roar, even during these trying economic times as evidenced by the results of the new study "The Economic Impact of New Mexico State University in 2010."
The study shows that NMSU pours thousands of jobs and millions of dollars into New Mexico's economy. Even more gratifying, the report also finds that NMSU alumni who remain in the state account for hundreds of millions of dollars in income and tax revenue.
I would like to thank the Arrowhead Center and Regents Professor Jim Peach and Professor Emeritus Anthony J. Popp for preparing this report. I invite you to read the full report and discover all the amazing ways NMSU affects our state's economy.
Sincerely,
Barbara Couture, President
