1 MISSISSIPPI INSTITUTIONS OF HIGHER LEARNING ACADEMIC PROGRAM DUPLICATION REPORT Office of Academic Affairs January 2001

2 January 8, 2002 Dr. Thomas D. Layzell, Commissioner Institutions of Higher Learning Subject: Targeted Duplicate Academic Programs Dear Dr. Layzell: A Board member requested an academic programs duplication report be prepared prior to the academic productivity review which will be presented in February. The report should list targeted masters and doctorate academic programs that are duplicated on multiple IHL campuses. To respond, the Office of Academic Affairs (OAA) prepared a report addressing the following questions: 1. What is the status of academic program duplication for Mississippi s public universities? 2. Which duplicate academic programs are targeted for low productivity? 3. What are the cost savings that the System would realize if targeted duplicate academic programs were phased out? In considering the status of program duplication in Mississippi, OAA considered the total number of academic program offerings in its contiguous states. The review yielded the following facts: C The number of academic programs offered by Mississippi s public universities (847) are comparable with those offered by public universities in Arkansas (1,105 at 10 institutions), Alabama (1,158 at 16 institutions), Tennessee (1,700 at both public and private institutions), and Louisiana (1,092 at 18 institutions). OAA s response to the questions follows:

3 Dr. Thomas D. Layzell Page 2 1. What is the status of academic program duplication for Mississippi s public universities? Table 1 contains all academic degree programs that are located on two or more campuses. Table 2 contains all academic degree programs that are unique to only one campus. The tables yield the following facts: C For Mississippi universities, 268 of 847 academic degree programs are unique to only one campus according to their C.I.P. numbers. The distribution of nonduplicate academic programs is summarized as follows: Non-duplicate Academic Programs University Number of Non-duplicate Academic Programs ASU 7 DSU 8 JSU 21 MSU 80 MUW 6 MVSU 4 UM 49 UMMC 29 USM 64 C The comprehensive universities offer 243 of the 268 unique academic programs or 91% of those programs. C 100% of the unique doctorate degree programs (66) are offered by the comprehensive universities. C 89% of the masters degree programs (84 comprehensive; 94 total) are offered by the comprehensive universities. C 83% of the bachelors degree programs (73 comprehensive; 88 total) are offered by the comprehensive universities. C For Mississippi universities, the distribution of duplicate academic degree programs follows: Duplicate Academic Programs Number of Academic Programs Number of Campuses

4 Dr. Thomas D. Layzell Page C C C The nine academic programs offered at all eight universities are considered Core Academic Programs that are offered only at the bachelor s degree level. Based on the National Center for Educational Statistics, these are the most frequently offered academic programs by U.S. universities. Undergraduate academic programs are more frequently duplicated on university campuses than graduate academic programs. Most academic units that manage graduate academic programs also manage the corresponding undergraduate academic programs. 2. Are there duplicate academic programs that are targeted? C Targeted masters and doctorate degree programs duplicated on two or more campuses have been identified for special review. C For masters degree programs, the data is located in Table 3 and Table 4 contains doctorate degree programs data. For comparison purposes, Table 5 contains targeted academic units with undergraduate and/or graduate academic programs. C C C Each university has been requested to review targeted academic units as well as targeted graduate programs. OAA will evaluate in February the universities reviews and provide the Board with recommended actions for each academic unit and for each graduate program. The review guidelines were shared with the Board in its July 2001 Board meeting. Many state systems of higher education are considering implementing academic productivity reviews and two (Kentucky and South Carolina) have requested copies of Mississippi s review structure. 3. What are the cost savings that the System would realize if targeted duplicate academic programs were phased out? C For cost savings considerations, OAA has identified the academic unit that manages both undergraduate and graduate academic programs as the unit where savings will occur. OAA will consider the following options when making recommendations in February: 1. Begin phase out of the academic unit and its programs. 3

5 Dr. Thomas D. Layzell Page 4 2. Place the academic unit on a three-year probation where progress in meeting the Board s standards will be evaluated annually to ensure that progress in being observed. 3. Restructure the academic unit by merging it with more productive units to eliminate duplicate administrative costs. 4. Fund-Down the academic unit to increase its cost-effectiveness and shift funds to more productive academic units. 5. Place the program on the IEO s list of three-year suspension of review status to give the program time to mature. 6. Identify the academic unit and academic programs as being within the five-year new program status. 7. Re-categorize the program based on data errors. C Table 5 will be used to identify targeted academic units that manage undergraduate and graduate programs to ensure that the total productivity of the academic unit is considered. This is important because many academic units manage multiple academic programs which provide students with options and do not require the university to commit additional resources. Closing such programs would provide marginal, if any, cost savings. C As will be discussed at the February Board meeting, many academic units that are not targeted have targeted graduate programs. As discussed in July, many of the graduate programs provide valuable service to the undergraduate programs by: C C C C C providing undergraduate research experiences providing graduate teaching, research and service assistantships helping in the recruitment of faculty helping in the generation of new knowledge enhancing the reputation of the academic unit. This report on academic program duplication should provide you with an overview of how program duplication is managed in Mississippi. If you have questions or comments, please feel free to contact me. Sincerely, William E. McHenry William McHenry, Ph.D. Assistant Commissioner of Academic Affairs 4
