“Collaborating with a corporate partner so singularly focused on student success has been a joy,” said Dean Nate Sharp, Mays Business School. “The company summarizes their commitment to their customers with the statement ‘Our goal is your happiness.’ You can see why Reliant’s name on the Mays Student Experience Office was a perfect fit.”

The Reliant Student Experience Office will provide high-impact learning experiences in four key areas: recruitment, academic success, leadership development and career development. It will serve as a place where every Mays undergraduate student can enrich their on-campus experience with programs including the Freshman Business Initiative, Business Honors program and Fellows program. The office will serve as the central hub for student success and engage closely with the Mays Career Center, Undergraduate Advising Office and the Center for International Business.

This renewed partnership with Reliant also aligns with Mays’ vision of building a better future through business as well as its goal of becoming the nation’s preeminent public business school at a time of tremendous change.

“Texas A&M University and the Mays Business School are instrumental in developing our state’s future leaders, which is why we’re thrilled about the Reliant Student Experience Office and the impact it will have on every single Mays undergraduate student,” said Rasesh Patel, president, NRG Consumer. “This space will enrich the student journey, providing experiences that deepen their learning, engagement and sense of belonging. We’re excited about the opportunity to welcome new and existing students and introduce them to Reliant at such a formative time in their lives.”

To commemorate the new Reliant Student Experience Office, a ribbon cutting ceremony was held on Thursday, August 22. Rasesh Patel represented Reliant and was accompanied by John Morris, senior vice president for development of the Texas A&M Foundation; Dr. Nate Sharp, dean of the Mays Business School; and several Mays leaders who played a crucial role in the partnership.

In addition, Reliant will also actively engage with Mays students through the business school’s programs and offer real-world educational experiences, including serving as a guest speaker for a SPARK business class and hosting student site visits to Reliant’s Houston headquarters.
