SACS Accreditation
The Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center is accredited by the Commission on Colleges of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools to award baccalaureate, masters, doctoral, and professional degrees. Contact the Commission on Colleges at 1866 Southern Lane, Decatur, Georgia 30033-4097 or call 404-679-4500 for questions about the accreditation of the Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center. The Commission should be contacted only if there is evidence that appears to support the institution’s significant non-compliance with a requirement or standard.
A member of the Texas Tech University System, TTUHSC has been accredited by the Commission on Colleges of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools as an institution separate from Texas Tech University since 2004. Reaffirmation of SACS accreditation for TTUHSC is scheduled to occur in 2009 and every ten years thereafter.
What's the Big Idea?
TTUHSC received big ideas from students, faculty, staff, and alumni on how to improve student learning at our institution. The QEP, or Quality Enhancement Plan, is a three- to five-year project that the University will develop as part of its reaffirmation of accreditation with the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS).
