NSHE - SYSTEM ADMINISTRATION
101-2986
PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
The Board of Regents is established by the Nevada Constitution and statutorily endowed with the powers to provide direction and governance for all activities of the Nevada System of
Higher Education (NSHE). The Board of Regents, in conjunction with the employees of the Chancellor's Office, provides direction and coordination for the various activities of the campuses
and units of the NSHE. The Chancellor's Office includes the functional areas of academic affairs, budget and financial planning/programming and legal counsel. The universities provide a
wide range of undergraduate and graduate instructional programs, including professional and doctoral work in selected fields; maintain library, studio and laboratory services, and resources
for research; provide cultural opportunities for students and the general public; and also provide public service and continuing education. The community colleges provide post-secondary
educational opportunities that are regionally and financially accessible. This includes teaching occupational skills required by business and industry; upgrading students' skills necessary to
compete successfully in college courses; providing community service programs and assistance to students in planning educational goals. The mission of the state college is to meet the needs
of students who are interested in bachelor's degrees in much-needed fields such as nursing and education, as well as in other disciplines in the arts and sciences. Course work is fully
transferable to both the first tier (universities) and the third tier (community colleges) in the NSHE. Appropriations in all NSHE budget accounts are recommended in conjunction with Board
of Regents approved adjustments for non-appropriation sources of revenue, including tuition adjustments. For campus budgets, the non-appropriation funding sources are primarily from
student registration fees and non-resident tuition. However, other available sources of revenue include operating capital investment and certain federal funds. Constitutional authority:
Article 11, Section 4 and NRS 396.
