Current through Reg. 49, No. 28; July 12, 2024
(a) The general purpose of off-campus
				  educational units of all sizes is to meet the education needs of the people of
				  Texas with a level of service that is appropriate for the area and cost
				  effective to offer. Their specific purpose is directly related to the teaching
				  of courses for academic credit from the parent institution(s) and/or for health
				  professions' medical training.
(b)
				  The Commissioner shall establish policies concerning how a location receives
				  designation as a specific type of off-campus educational unit and how to expand
				  educational activities.
(c) The
				  type and name of all off-campus educational units, with the exception of higher
				  education teaching sites, must be approved by the Board. Recognition of an
				  off-campus educational unit may be withdrawn by the Board.
(d) An off-campus educational unit is
				  financially dependent upon its parent institution(s) and is supported by the
				  budget of the institution(s). It is not eligible to request separate
				  legislative funding. Off-campus educational units should use locally provided
				  facilities, where possible.
(1) Degree
				  programs offered at off-campus educational units must be offered by and in the
				  name of the parent institution(s).
(2) The parent institution must commit to
				  providing a program long enough for a student to have a reasonable opportunity
				  to graduate before the resource is withdrawn or to make other reasonable
				  arrangements for students to complete programs that they have
				  started.
(3) The Board must be
				  notified of programs offered or discontinued at off-campus educational units.
				  The Board shall maintain a list of these degree programs and make that list
				  readily available to the public.
(4) Courses offered at off-campus educational
				  units must be reported separately and accurately in required Board reports.
				  Semester credit hours completed at the unit must be reported appropriately by
				  the parent institution(s) and shall be funded as determined by the
				  Legislature.
(5) The facilities of
				  off-campus educational units shall comply with Chapter 17 of this title,
				  relating to Resource Planning.
Texas Administrative Code › Title 19 - EDUCATION › Part 1 - TEXAS HIGHER EDUCATION COORDINATING BOARD › Chapter 5 - RULES APPLYING TO PUBLIC UNIVERSITIES, HEALTH-RELATED INSTITUTIONS, AND/OR SELECTED PUBLIC COLLEGES OF HIGHER EDUCATION IN TEXAS › Subchapter D - OPERATION OF OFF-CAMPUS EDUCATIONAL UNITS OF PUBLIC SENIOR COLLEGES, UNIVERSITIES AND HEALTH-RELATED INSTITUTIONS › Section 5.78 - Supply/Demand Pathway

Current through Reg. 49, No. 28; July 12, 2024
(a) The Board has
				  developed the Supply/Demand Pathway (SDP) as a particular way to address
				  anticipated large-scale enrollment demand in a specified region. The SDP shall
				  be used as the model to address higher education needs in areas without ready
				  geographic access to existing public higher education institutions. The general
				  principles set forth in §
										5.76
				  of this title (relating to General Principals for Off-Campus Educational Units)
				  are even more significant in regard to the larger scale efforts designated as
				  SDP initiatives.
(b) An off-campus
				  educational unit is on the "Pathway" when it is awarded that designation by the
				  Board.
(c) The SDP consists of
				  three categories:
(1) Category A.
				  Institutions temporarily test the market both in terms of demand and staying
				  power by providing off-campus courses and/or programs by one or more
				  institutions. Should demand decrease or not materialize, courses and programs
				  can be discontinued and resources moved to areas of greater demand.
(2) Category B. As demand increases,
				  offerings may be organized through a multi-institution teaching center or as a
				  university system center as a Pathway Education Center (PEC). A group of
				  institutions may request that the Board authorize the establishment of a MITC.
				  Alternatively, a university system may request that the Board authorize the
				  establishment of a university system center. In either case, a lead institution
				  shall be designated to provide leadership for the center and facilitate the
				  provision of programs and resources from other institutions.
(3) Category C. After an entity in Category B
				  has attained a full-time equivalent upper-level and graduate enrollment of
				  3,500 for one fall semester, the parent institution(s) and Board(s) of Regents
				  may request that the Board review the status of the center and recommend that
				  the Legislature reclassify the unit as an upper-level general academic
				  institution--a university. The 3,500 FTSE standard approximates the headcount
				  enrollment included in the current university funding formula as the minimum
				  size needed to achieve economies of scale.
