THE CORE OF GRADUATE EXCELLENCE: Faculty
drive research and must have institutional support to conduct
innovative research that aligns with the mission of WT.
PIPELINES TO PROFESSIONAL SCHOOLS Baccalaureate/master’s graduates whose post-graduate goals do not fit with existing programs at WT will have opportunities to continue graduate education elsewhere. Pipelines provide opportunity and cost effectiveness. In addition, they strengthen both institutions and the service those institutions provide to their respective constituencies. A CHANGED NATURE WT will increase the number of doctoral graduates/programs in order to achieve Carnegie R3 Doctoral Classification Status. This will require focused effort among faculty, staff, administration and all stakeholders to identify the areas in whichWT can serve regional needs with doctoral programs and commit the resources necessary to design and deliver quality programs in those areas.
Metric: Twenty percent of graduates who leave WT for post-baccalaureate study are accepted at Texas A&MUniversity.
