Reports To: Associate Vice President for Academic Affairs

Number of Members: 19

Purpose: The committee's purpose is to continually improve the quality of students' education and their higher education experience by focusing on annual programmatic and core curriculum assessment. The committee will discuss issues related to assessment of academic programs, support units, and the THECB's Core Learning Objectives, with a focus on use of the data for continuous improvement. Members will share best practices regarding annual programmatic assessment and meta-assessment processes and collaborate on new ideas to improve assessment practices at SHSU.

Member Appointments: The Provost and Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs appoints all members. The Chair, Co-Chair, and academic college representatives will serve by virtue of position for indefinite terms. Membership includes an Assistant or Associate Dean, or appropriate representative (e.g., Director of Assessment), from each of the academic colleges, who are responsible for assessment activities within their college; an Associate or Assistant Vice President from each division; and a representative from the Office of the President. The Senior Vice President or Vice President of each division will nominate one Associate or Assistant Vice President to serve a two-year term. The Deputy to the President will nominate a representative for non-division units that report directly to the Office of the President (e.g., Athletics) to serve a two-year term.

Co-Chair Appointment: The Associate Director of the Office of Assessment serves as Co-Chair of the committee.
