The School of Irrigation conducts research and educational programs supporting the Texas Irrigation Industry. It is administered through the Texas AgriLife Extension and the Department of Biological and Agricultural Engineering at Texas A&M University.

In 1994, the school was established to promote landscape irrigation auditing and management in Texas through training and auditor certification. In 1998, we began offering training programs and courses for Water District Personnel.

To date, the School of Irrigation has provided educational opportunities to over 2500 individuals, certifying over 500 Texas Landscape Irrigation Auditors. We seek to provide quality irrigation education through a variety of courses, with new ones under development to meet the changing needs of the irrigation industry.
