Louisiana Board of Regents (BoR)
The contains information about academic programs, research units, and various administrative requests that have come before the Academic & Student Affairs Committee of the Board of Regents after January 1, 1998. The purpose of this database is to inform viewers of the current status of institutional requests and reporting requirements related to them; it is *not* the official record of Board actions. If you're interested in the final approval actions taken by the Board of Regents, please review the .
Approval Process for BoR-Approved Centers & Institutes
The purpose of centers and institutes is to advance the university鈥檚 mission and strategic plan in areas such as workforce training, academic programming, and research and innovation. The 中出轮奸女教 AP-OP-24.3 policy on Centers and Institutes provides a framework for the establishment, review, maintenance, operation, and discontinuation of centers and institutes.
If you are submitting a new proposal or renewal for a Board of Regents (BoR) approved center or institute, you should submit it internally 3 months prior to the month that you want to be added to the BoR agenda. Any of the reviewers may request additional information, and it is the responsibility of the applicant to be aware of BoR meeting dates and plan their submission accordingly.
You can apply as an academic/research unit or as a center of excellence using the Center and Institute Routing Form in SharePoint located here: .
Academic/Research Units (Centers and Institutes):
Proposals for new centers, institutes, and other similar academic/research units (both intra- and inter- institutional) that are organized and structured around a broad-ranging, interdisciplinary research effort should follow the .
- Center: The primary purpose of a Center is to conduct research, but closely related academic or public service activities may also be included. A center typically resides within an existing academic unit (college, department) and reports to the head of that unit, but may cross college lines and report to a senior academic officer. A center is not directly involved in the offering of courses for credit or degree programs. A center may also serve as a formalized link between the academic community and the professional community. A center should also facilitate efforts of the institution to attract external funding for related research.
- Institute: The primary purpose of an Institute is to conduct research and offer associated instruction, but closely related academic or public service activities may also be included. An institute is typically an autonomous unit which reports directly to an academic dean or chief academic/research officer. An institute may serve as a formalized link between the academic community and the professional community. An institute may independently offer courses for credit and/or degree programs. An institute should also facilitate efforts of the institution to attract external funding for related research.
Centers of Excellence:
A Center of Excellence is uniquely focused and specific in its designation. It may consist of a unit, program, or functional area that, as a Center, is accountable to a higher expectation of performance and productivity, including contributions to the body of knowledge and to economic development, placement of graduates, generation of external interest and support, formation of joint ventures and partnerships, and positive recognition of the area and its faculty and students. Follow the .
The Council on Centers and Institutes (CCI) will review the submitted documentation and will vote to approve or reject the application.
Approved applications will be forwarded to the appropriate Vice President for final review. Internally reviewed applications and renewals will be sent to Academic Affairs for submission to Board of Regents.
Historically, Board of Regents does not communicate directly regarding review of centers and institutes. Instead, they post their on their website.
