Introduction to UH System Performance Report

Higher education in the United States today is at a critical point in its history. Never before has the demand for our services been greater – the college-educated workforce and new knowledge that universities produce are essential to our ability to compete in the global economy. Nor have the resources needed to achieve this end been more scarce – higher education must be balanced against other compelling priorities (e.g., public education, health care) for increasingly limited government funding. Plus there is a limit to which we can raise tuition and fees to accomplish our goals without compromising student access to higher education. Tier One universities must commit to student success as a top priority and embrace public accountability and transparency. In short, we must see a greater return on investment in terms of students enrolled, degrees awarded, research productivity, and private support among other measures of institutional excellence. We must also operate with greater transparency and accountability. The importance of higher education in American society and the value of the public dollar demand that we are open about the decisions we make and that we demonstrate our performance on a regular basis.

“Tier One universities must commit to student success as a top priority and embrace public accountability and transparency.” Included in this report are the University of Houston System mission statement, goals and principles. Established at the beginning of my administration in 2008, they constitute the strategic framework through which all decisions are made at the University of Houston, UHClear Lake, UH-Downtown and UH-Victoria. Also included are progress cards for the UH System and each of its universities. Reviewed annually by the Board of Regents, the progress cards demonstrate, through key performance indicators, the success we have had in fulfilling our mission and achieving our goals.

Renu Khator Chancellor, University of Houston System President, University of Houston

Mission The University of Houston System provides, through the complementary missions of its four universities, access to comprehensive higher education programs and services to the diverse community of students in the Houston metropolitan area and beyond. The UH Systemâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s research and scholarship are globally significant, nationally competitive, and serve as an engine for economic development, while its public service activities enhance the quality of life in the region.

Goals

Principles

National Competitiveness

The City of Houston (and the Greater Houston Region) will be known for having one of the best and most diverse metropolitan systems of higher education in the nation.

2. The UH System should provide access to the people of Houston throughout the Houston metropolitan region, making that access as convenient as academically and financially possible.

Each university within the UH System will benchmark itself nationally for excellence within the context of its unique mission.

3. The UH Systemâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s institutions should be the primary providers of educational access in the Houston metropolitan region. However, they should seek partnerships with other institutions when it benefits students and when it is naturally advantageous.

Student Success

The UH System will commit to providing access to the people of the Greater Houston Region and the state. Each university within the UH System will make student success its top priority and will hold itself publicly accountable for achieving this goal. The UH System will help students identify the UHS university that best serves their needs and academic goals, so that they are not lost to the UH System or to higher education. Furthermore, pathways will be developed for transfers between campuses and admissions to graduate programs.

Community Advancement

The whole of the system should be greater than the sum of its parts.

The UH System should establish some distinctive mission differentiation among its institutions, while still enabling them to serve the needs of their region.

5. The UH System management structure should be as simple as possible and should ensure clarity of responsibility and accountability. 6. The UH System should be strategic about its enrollment growth and intentional about its tuition and other financial strategies. 7.

The UH System should ensure a standard of excellence throughout its institutions, while recognizing differences in student populations and missions.

8. The UH System should have a clear nomenclature that will enhance international, national, state, and regional marketing and branding. 9. The UH System should maximize opportunities for both its faculty and students to benefit from being within a system.

The UH System will be the engine of social and economic advancement of the metropolitan region and the state. Each university within the UH System will engage with its community and will hold itself publicly accountable for contributing toward community advancement.
