Institutional Policy

Texas Tech University is governed by Texas Tech Operating Policies, Texas Tech University System (TTUS)Regulations, Regents’ Rules, and other guiding documents, including the Faculty Handbook and the Code of Student Conduct.

TTUS Regulations are developed to address specific directives and reporting requirements needed to implement TTUS Regents’ Rules and shall include interpretations where issues and specific guidelines are needed for uniform compliance.

TTUS Regulations may also be developed to promote efficiencies, establish “best practices” and communicate uniform guidelines on matters of overall System concern that are not specifically addressed in Regents’ Rules. Regulations may also be developed to provide for uniform compliance with Fiscal, Academic, Research, Human Resources and other management standards and requirements imposed by federal or state law or external administrative agency rules.

System Regulations are not intended to replace component institutions’ operating procedures (OPs). Regulations are intended to provide uniform guidelines for consistent reporting and operations.
