Strategic Plan 2013-2014 Report TEXAS TECH UNIVERSIT Y Making it Possible... 2010-2020 Strategic Plan 2013-2014 REPORT CONTENTS Letter from President M. Duane Nellis 2 The 2013 Report Implementing Texas Tech’s 2010-2020 Strategic Plan: “Making it possible...” 4 Background & Report on Progress 4 Progress Toward Goals 5 Priority 1: Increase Enrollment and Promote Student Success 7 Priority 2: Strengthen Academic Quality & Reputation 10 Priority 3: Expand and Enhance Research and Creative Scholarship 12 Priority 4: Further Outreach and Engagement 14 Priority 5: Increase and Maximize Resources 16 Appendices 18 Appendix 1: Priority 1 18 Appendix 2: Priority 2 20 Appendix 3: Priority 3 22 Appendix 4: Priority 4 24 Appendix 5: Priority 5 26 Appendix 6: NSF 28 Appendix 7: Progress Toward AAU Characteristics 29 As Texas Tech University continues its path toward becoming more AAU-like, it is essential we address our goals and strategies to ensure a consistent gradual transition. While an important piece in the early stages of our strategic plan was the distinction of becoming a National Research University (NRU) in the state of Texas, now that we have achieved that status, our focuses must be reviewed to meet the ever-changing climate of higher education and adjusted, if necessary, to accommodate future growth. Within the pages of this strategic plan are alterations–some modest, others more grand–to assist Texas Tech in moving forward. Since receiving NRU status and benefiting nearly $8 million annually from the National Research University Fund, Texas Tech has bolstered its research funding and has dramatically increased its research and academic profiles nationally. Our peers are recognizing Texas Tech’s presence in the research and academic communities. We are accomplishing this through enhanced outreach efforts, including collaborations with other universities, both in the United States and abroad, and through partnerships with industry leaders such as Bayer CropScience The content of this strategic plan presents a road map toward future successes and offers a brief reflection from where we’ve come. Texas Tech’s sights are set firmly on the future as a national research university, while riding and building upon our past successes. M. Duane Nellis President, Texas Tech University 2 TEXAS TECH UNIVERSITY 2010-2020 STRATEGIC PLAN 3 The Dr. Lawrence Schovanec Provost and Senior Vice President, 2013-2014 Texas Tech University Report Implementing Texas Tech’s 2010-2020 Strategic Plan: “Making it possible…” BACKGROUND & REPORT ON PROGRESS Texas Tech University (TTU) In 2009, the Legislature not only a distinguished faculty noted for its received official notification in 2012 provided for the creation of the scholarship and creative activity, from the Texas Higher Education NRUF, they also established the and enroll an excellent student Coordinating Board and State Texas Research Incentive Program body.

Topics will include, but will be not limited to: structural dynamics, random vibrations, numerical methods, experimental methods (wind tunnel and full scale), monitoring and structural identification, aerodynamic and aeroelastic phenomena, stochastic simulations. The main focus of the workshop will be on flexible bridges. Nevertheless, presentations related to other slender structures affected by wind hazards, such as buildings, and other emerging applications will be welcome. Invited speakers from Japan and United States are kindly requested to prepare a 20-minute PPT presentation. Each presentation will be followed by a brief discussion (5 minutes). The objective of these presentations is to promote discussion among researchers and to possibly identify common topics for future academic interaction.

From the industrial revolution to today’s information age, the United States has led the world in creating the inventions and ideas that drive economic prosperity. America’s universities are responsible for 36 percent of all research in the country, including 53 percent of all basic research, and they help keep America at the forefront of the 21st century economy. The Federal Government has recognized the importance of university research by providing roughly 60 percent of all academic R&D funding. American academic research has benefited from the fact that the US remains a top magnet for the world’s best and brightest students and graduates 16 percent of all PhDs worldwide in scientific and technical fields.

  • Agricultural Education Competencies: a Comparison of Master's Students at Texas Tech and Texas A&M Universities
    AGRICULTURAL EDUCATION COMPETENCIES: A COMPARISON OF MASTER’S STUDENTS AT TEXAS TECH AND TEXAS A&M UNIVERSITIES James R. Lindner, Assistant Professor Texas A&M University Matt Baker, Professor Texas Tech University Abstract This study was designed to describe Texas Tech and Texas A&M universities agricultural education master’s students’ perceived competencies. A survey of active and continuously enrolled master’s students was conducted. A 60% response rate was achieved. Data for the study were collected by mailed and online questionnaires. Study findings showed that students at both institutions had similar levels of competencies. Students had highest levels of theories, techniques, and processes that enhance the teacher-learner process for adults and youth; content skills such as reading comprehension and mathematics that provide a foundation for the acquisition of more specific skills; communication abilities such as oral comprehension, written expression, speech clarity, and auditory attention that are needed to focus attention and deliver information and communicate effectively. Students had lowest levels of theories, principles, and practices related to agricultural development in cross-national settings; technical skills such as technology design and operations analysis that are needed to use information technologies effectively; and perceptual, spatial, and memory abilities, such as speed and flexibility of closure, visualization, and recollection, that are needed to identify and make sense of complexly related material and systems.

It traces changes in peoples’ perceptions, critically examining literary evidence for changing attitudes towards wetlands in seven Midwest states of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota. Views of places described by travellers, landowners, journalists and writers of fiction are compared with reports by federal and state officials, maps and statistical data. Changing scientific descriptions and classifications of the physical characteristics of wet prairies, swamps and bogs are reviewed. Important changes in the outlook of Indians followed their contact with Europeans.
