WT will explore graduate-level
programs that utilize an interdisciplinary approach.
INNOVATION
Graduate education at WT will encompass changes that • advance the institution as a center for “regional research;”
Metric: Every college and school at West Texas A&MUniversity will have access to a doctoral degree by the year 2035.
• make graduate school and the academic colleges efficient and responsive to change, wherein procedures will be transparent and never an obstacle to success; and • make the brick and mortar environment technologically advanced to maximize the quality of teaching and research conducted at WT. In addition, WT will ensure that the opportunities provided by higher education are not nullified by excessive debt. The goals of research and teaching in rural settings of the Texas Panhandle and similar areas in the United States and the world are paramount. Our practices of teaching and research must include interdisciplinary approaches.
