Dear Stakeholder:
As I review this fourteenth edition of the Information Digest, I am reminded of the remarkable changes taking place in the thirty-four public institutions in the University System of Georgia. As a result of implementing higher admissions standards over the past several years, our institutions are admitting students who have accepted the challenge and are entering with ever better academic preparation: higher SATs and GPAs and meeting full CPC requirements.
To ensure that the System fulfills its side of the bargain to deliver a quality education worthy of our hardworking students, the Board of Regents initiated a major benchmarking study this past year, comparing ourselves on a variety of issues with our peers across the country. This study confirmed our strengths, renewed hope in our emerging possibilities, and revealed in greater detail our weaknesses. It will provide invaluable direction for months and years ahead.
As always, the Information Digest is our annual document of accountability to all our constituents. It provides a wide range of comparative and historical data, which we hope will answer many of your questions about the University System of Georgia. We welcome any suggestions for future editions of the Information Digest.
Sincerely,
Stephen R. Portch Chancellor

Vision Statement
As Georgia emerges as a leader in a global society, the University System of Georgia will lead in access to academic excellence. Among the nation's public universities and colleges, Georgia's will be recognized for first-rate undergraduate education, leading-edge research, and committed public service. Georgians will appreciate the System's prestige and leadership in public higher education, including its graduate and professional programs, as fundamental to the state's economic, social, technological, and cultural advancement. The University System of Georgia and its component colleges and universities will sustain close contact with the people of Georgia, be responsive to the needs of Georgians first and foremost while raising their aspirations, and generate a more highly educated populace throughout the state. It will seek to create for students from various backgrounds every possible avenue to intellectual achievement without compromising academic excellence, and challenge them to their full potential for leadership. Its students, who are its heart and soul, will therefore be its strongest supporters.
To these ends, the University System of Georgia will be characterized by:
A whole that is greater than the sum of its parts, in which each campus has a clearly focused and valued mission, and all contribute their strong, bright threads to a network of programs that covers Georgians' diverse needs for higher education.
Students who master their majors and the basic skills of critical reasoning, independent thinking, computation, communication, collaboration, and creativity needed to enter the workplace with confidence, to move beyond entry-level jobs, to pursue lifelong learning, and to exercise leadership as contributing citizens who advance their families, communities, state, nation, and world into the new millennium.
A world-class, diverse faculty and staff who have superior communication and teaching skills; who use new technologies, roles, and curricular innovations creatively to enhance student learning; and who exhibit the highest standards of intellectual achievement and continuing growth, social responsibility, and concern for students.
Active partnerships with business and industry, cultural and social organizations, and government in order to analyze, project, and respond to changing state and regional needs, to support Georgia's economic and cultural development and to insure that its graduates are prepared for the future.
Campus learning communities that engage students with the ideas that mark educated persons, global and multicultural perspectives, and advanced technology to develop both ethical principles and intellectual flexibility for the world of tomorrow; and that celebrate and energize the student spirit, while respecting and supporting the different ways students develop their minds, their persons, and their citizenship.
Leadership in establishing higher state standards for post-secondary education and--with the public schools and technical institutes--in improving and valuing education at all levels, helping students move smoothly within the System and from one educational sector to another, and insuring that all students who enter the University System are prepared to succeed.
A constitutional Board of Regents that establishes clear policies and review procedures to promote the continuing improvement of every unit and of the System as a coordinated whole, that encourages initiative and innovation throughout the System, that requires full accountability from all, and that insures responsible stewardship.
The University System of Georgia will hold itself accountable to the citizens of Georgia for the effective and efficient use of every available material resource, new technology, and human insight and activity to achieve access to academic excellence for all citizens, and to charge its collective intellectual power on behalf of the state.

Equivalent Full-Time (EFT) Enrollment
Fall 1992 - Fall 2001
EFT enrollment is the conversion of the number of all students enrolled full-time and part-time into an equivalent number of full-time students. It is calculated by dividing the total credit hours taken by all students during the quarter or semester by 15, the load for a full-time student for a quarter or semester. EFT is based on quarter credit hours for 1991-1997 and semester hours for 1998 forward, except for Georgia Institute of Technology which produced semester credit hours beginning in 1999.

Enrollment Targets
1998 - 2003
A cornerstone of continuous improvement is comprehensive planning for the future, and part of comprehensive planning for the University System of Georgia is strategic enrollment planning. Following are the proposed institutional enrollment targets. For an institution to meet its enrollment target, its enrollment for any given year must remain within the corridor created by that year's target number plus or minus two percent. These targets will be rolling five year targets; each year a new year will be added and the remaining four years reviewed to insure they are still appropriate.

Learning Support Programs
Developmental Studies programs began in Fall 1974 as a means of bringing the reading, English, and mathematical skills of marginally prepared students up to standard. In 1993, Developmental Studies policy and procedures were revised and Developmental Studies programs were included under a broader Learning Support (LS) structure. LS programs serve students who need preparation in reading, mathematics, English, and/or other areas for success in college. Students who do not meet standards for regular admission are required to take the appropriate part(s) of the Collegiate Placement Exam or COMPASS exam to determine whether they are to be placed in LS courses. In admissions, placement, and exit requirements, institutions may set higher standards than required by the System. No degree credit may be earned in LS courses, but institutional credit is awarded. LS programs may serve three groups of students:
1. Students required to take LS courses because they are below System minimum requirements for placement (430 SAT-Verbal or 400 SAT-Math or CPC English or CPC Math);
2. Students who are above the System minimum requirements but are required by the institution to take LS courses or other courses;
3. Students who volunteer to take LS courses to prepare for regular college courses.

College Preparatory Curriculum
Policy
In 1984, the University System of Georgia adopted the College Preparatory Curriculum (CPC) policy to be implemented in Fall 1988. In passing the CPC policy, the Board of Regents emphasized that success in college was dependent on strong academic preparation in high school. Board of Regents' policy requires the completion of the college preparatory curriculum for admission to any institution of the University System of Georgia. The CPC course requirements have been approved by the Board of Regents and endorsed by the State Board of Education.
The following courses are required of students graduating from high school in the last five years who plan to enroll in college programs leading to the baccalaureate degree in University System institutions. The courses outlined represent the minimum standards required by the Board of Regents. Beginning Summer 2001, a fourth math unit is required. Each institution may set higher standards than those listed.
Course (Units) English (4) Science (3)
Mathematics (4) Social Science (3) Foreign Language (2)
Instructional Emphasis
Grammar and Usage Literature (American, English, and world) Advanced composition skills
Physical Science At least two laboratory courses from Biology, Chemisty, Physics, or related areas of science At least one laboratory course from life sciences At least one laboratory course from the physical sciences
Algebra I, Algebra II and Geometry One additional math course
American History World History Economics and Government
Two courses in one language emphasizing speaking, listening, reading, and writing
Source: The Policy Manual; Academic Affairs Handbook
System Calendar
The Board of Regents approved the conversion from a quarter calendar to a semester calendar in December 1995, with actual conversion in effect in Fall 1998. All of the System institutions, with
the exception of Georgia Institute of Technology, converted at that time.
The Core Curriculum at each institution has been redesigned to facilitate transfer among System institutions. Most courses are three semester hours. The full-time load for an undergraduate is 12 semester hours. The full-time load for a graduate student is 9 semester hours.
Each System institution will begin and end classes during the same week each year.

Notes:
1. This table includes only those freshmen who attempted at least five quarter credit hours by Spring quarter for cohorts through 1988 or three semester hours for FY1999 on.
2. The composite score is derived by summing the SAT verbal score and the SAT math score. The possible range for SATV and SATM is 200 to 800; the possible composite score range is 400 to 1600.
3. Medical College of Georgia admits only a limited number of freshmen, and their data are not included.
4. The number of freshmen in this table should not be used to determine the size of an institution's entering class for the year. Not included are students with missing data on SAT, such as students with GED's, those admitted into programs that do not require SAT scores, and those who were admitted based on ACT scores. This table includes students who were admitted with advanced placement credit.
5. The Georgia, Nation and USG scores for 1990-95 are recentered on individual scores. Beginning in 1996, University System data were reported on the recentered scale.
* The Georgia total includes all 2000 Georgia high school seniors who took the SAT any time during their high school years through April 2000. If a student took the SAT more than once, the most recent score is used.

Regents' Testing Program
PURPOSE: The Regents' Testing Program (RTP) was instituted in all System institutions to provide System-wide information on the status of student competence in the areas of reading and writing and a uniform means of identifying those students who fail to attain the minimum levels of competence in the areas of reading and writing. Passing the test became a requirement for graduation from undergraduate degree programs (associate and baccalaureate) in 1973. In 1987 the RTP policy was changed to exempt students earning career associate degrees.
DESCRIPTION: The test consists of two parts, reading and essay, and is administered each semester at all System institutions. The reading part of the test is a 60-item, multiple choice test based on ten reading passages with five to eight questions about each passage. The questions are designed to assess vocabulary, comprehension, and analysis skills. The minimum passing score for the reading section is 61.
For the essay, students have one hour in which to choose and write on one of the four topics that are given. The completed essays are then distributed by the RTP office among six centers in the State, where three independent raters from System institutions score each essay on a four-point scale. The final score is the rating on which at least two of the three raters agree or the middle rating if there is no agreement. Thus, an essay is given a failing grade only if at least two of the three raters assign a failing grade.
REMEDIATION: Students who have earned 45 semester hours of college-level credit and have not passed both parts of the test must take non-degree credit courses in remedial reading and/or writing until they have passed both parts of the test. If a student fails only one part of the test, he or she is required to repeat only that part. There is no limit on the number of times a student may take remediation or retake the test, although some institutions have policies allowing students to retake the test only when quantifiable progress has been made.
RESULTS: Because institutions vary in their policies concerning the Regents' Test, it is unwise to use the data on the next page to compare institutions. Note that statistics for repeaters include each repeat attempt.

Academic Policies and Programs
CORE CURRICULUM
The institutions of the University System share a common general mission in providing a Core Curriculum for all entering freshmen. The purpose is to aid and facilitate the educational progress of students as they pursue baccalaureate degrees within and among the units of the University System. It is designed to constitute the freshman and sophomore years of study and assure the transfer student that Core Curriculum courses successfully completed at one University System institution, or a fractional part thereof, will be accepted at another University System unit and apply toward a baccalaureate degree. The Core also provides for the preservation of the maximum possible amount of institutional autonomy.
The Core Curriculum is composed of 60 semester credit hours of study divided among six areas of which 42 hours are in general education and 18 in a major area of study. Each institution has developed its Core Curriculum within the broad context of the above plan.

A Essential Skills B Institutional Options C Humanities/Fine Arts D Science, Mathematics, and Technology E Social Science F Courses Related to the Program of Study

INTERNATIONAL EDUCATION
The Board of Regents issued a policy directive in 1995 to strengthen the international dimensions of teaching, research, and service across the University System. USG institutions have pursued an array of programs and initiatives to achieve the Board's goals. The System Council for International Education, composed of presidential appointees from each of the 34 institutions, is the primary policy advisory board on international issues. Major areas of international activity include:
Study Abroad:Board of Regents policy calls for increased participation in study abroad and exchange programs. The number of USG students studying abroad has increased from 1,662 in 1996 to 2,765 in 1999-2000.
International Students: Board of Regents policy seeks a diverse student body as an important ingredient in improving the education of all learners. Students from around the world attend all USG colleges and universities. The University System enrolled 12,782 students from 187 different countries in Fall 2000.
Curriculum & Instructional Technology: The System's four-year universities offer more than 50 bachelor's degrees and nearly two dozen graduate degrees in international fields. They also offer
nearly 50 certificates and degree minors in international areas. The System is engaged in several major initiatives to expand access to foreign language and area studies curricula through internet-based learning.
Foreign Languages: USG institutions offer courses in nearly two dozen modern and classical languages. Enrollments have increased from 17,389 in Fall 1996 to 23,003 in Fall 2000. The College Preparatory Curriculum (CPC) requires two Carnegie units of the same foreign language to qualify for undergraduate admission.
Faculty Development: Each year hundreds of USG faculty participate in overseas seminars, research delegations, and teaching programs that strengthen their international expertise and direct knowledge of other countries.

Admissions Standards and Programs
MINIMUM ADMISSIONS REQUIREMENTS 2001
The revised admission policy approved by the Board of Regents in 1996 will be phased in beginning Summer 2001.
Regular admission to programs leading to the baccalaureate degree requires. . .
Graduation from a high school accredited by a regional accrediting association (such as the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools) or the Georgia Accrediting Commission or from a public school regulated by a school system and state department of education Completion of the Scholastic Assessment Test (SAT) or the American College Testing (ACT) Assessment Program Completion of sixteen specified CPC units A designated score on the freshman Index (FI), which is based on a combination of a student's SAT I or ACT scores and high school grade point average (HSGPA). The freshman index is:
FI = 500 x (HSGPA) + SAT I Verbal + SAT I Math or FI = 500 x HSGPA + (ACT Composite x 42) + 88
A minimum SAT I Verbal score of 430 and Mathematics score of 400 (or ACT equivalent) for admission to a university (research, regional, or state). Admission to a two-year college requires the minimum SAT I Verbal score of 330 and Mathematics score of 310 (or ACT equivalent).
Satisfaction of these minima does not guarantee admission to any University System institution since institutions may establish both higher and additional admissions requirements.

FI > or equal to 1940 (must include at least 430 on SAT I Verbal and 400 SAT I Math)
FI > or equal to 1830 (must include at least 330 on SAT I Verbal and 310 SAT I Math)
JOINT ENROLLMENT/ EARLY ADMISSION PROGRAMS/POST-SECONDARY OPTIONS The University System of Georgia recognizes the need to provide academically talented high
school students with opportunities for acceleration of their formal academic programs. This recognition has led to the development of two organized programs: 1) a joint enrollment program in which the student, while continuing his/her enrollment in high school as a junior or senior, enrolls in courses for college credit; and 2) an early admission program in which the student enrolls as a full-time college student following completion of the junior year in high school. Minimum admissions requirements are 1) a minimum combined SAT score of 970 or equivalent ACT scores, 2) a minimum cumulative high school grade point average of 3.0 or a numerical average of 80 or higher in academic subjects, 3) exemption of all Learning Support requirements for early admission, 4) written recommendation from the high school principal or counselor, and 5) written consent of parent or guardian (if the student is a minor). In Fall 2000 2,539 students were enrolled through the joint enrollment program, an increase of 1 percent since 1999.
SENIOR CITIZEN ADMISSIONS
Pursuant to a Georgia constitutional amendment passed in 1976, Georgia residents, 62 years of age or older, may enroll as a regular or auditing student in degree credit work on a "space available" basis without payment of fees, except for supplies, laboratory or shop fees. Students must meet all system and institution undergraduate or graduate school admission requirements and follow the same program as other degree-seeking students. The program does not apply to Dental, Medical, Veterinary, or Law Schools. In Fall 2000, 309 persons were enrolled through the program.

Faculty By Tenure Status
Corps of Instruction: December 2000
Tenure resides at the institutional level. Only assistant professors, associate professors, and professors who are normally employed full-time by an institution are eligible for tenure. Tenure is awarded upon recommendation of the president and approval by the Board of Regents. Tenure may be awarded at the end of a five-year period, and the maximum time that may be served at the rank of assistant professor or above without the award of tenure is seven years. In exceptional circumstances tenure may also be awarded upon appointments. Administrators do not hold tenure in their administrative positions but may be awarded rank and tenure. The Board has also established a non-tenure track policy for persons with faculty rank. There is no limit for years of service in this category, but persons cannot be considered for award of tenure or receive probationary credit toward tenure for years of service in this track.
The following data include full-time teaching faculty, research faculty, general administrators, academic administrators, public service faculty, librarians, and counselors who hold Boardapproved academic rank; are tenured, on tenure track, or in positions that are not tenure track; and are employed on at least an academic year contract. Instructional faculty are a subset of this group. This table does not include retired faculty receiving benefits, inactive faculty, or part-time faculty.

Full-Time Faculty, Part-Time Instructors, and Other Instructional Personnel Teaching
Fall 2000
This report categorizes those teaching courses in USG institutions in Fall 2000 into three groups: 1) full-time faculty (FT), i. e, the corps of instruction; 2) part-time instructors (PT), including graduate teaching assistants; and 3) other instructional personnel (Other), full-time employees who are not in the corps of instruction, but who taught in Fall 2000, and a small number of instructors who are not employed by USG institutions (for example, those employed at a private institution, but teaching in Fall 2000 at a USG institution). The corps of instruction was further restricted to those who were teaching at the same institution at which they were employed; thus some faculty teaching via distance education were counted as "other" at the institution where they taught in Fall.

Funding Formula
The University System operates under a formula funding system developed in 1982 and implemented in the FY1984 budget request. The goal of full funding of the formula was achieved in FY1987.
The formula is a mathematical device that aggregates the funding needs of all institutions to provide a continuous level of support for the Resident Instruction activity of the University System. The formula is used by: 1) the Board of Regents to request Resident Instruction funds from the State of Georgia; 2) the Governor to recommend Resident Instruction funding to the Legislature; and 3) the Legislature to appropriate State funds for Resident Instruction to the Board of Regents. The formula is not used to allocate money to the various institutions.
An array of workload variables is applied to a set of constants to determine Resident Instruction funding needs. Student workload, expressed in terms of credit hours, directly or indirectly generates about 72 percent of the total budget. Operation and maintenance costs of the physical plant account for another 13 percent of the budget, and 15 percent is generated through other organized activities. Thus, the formula is student-driven. The workload variables and constants are described below.
I. Instruction and Research
A. Instruction. The formula for instruction is based on credit hours generated in three instructional levels (lower, upper, and graduate/professional) and three broad program groups (1-3), plus special program groups for learning support (4) and medicine (5).
Group 1. Law, Letters, Library Science, Psychology, and Social Sciences Group 2. Area Studies, Business, Communications, Education, Home Economics, Mathematics,
Public Affairs, and Interdisciplinary Studies Group 3. Agriculture, Architecture, Biological Sciences, Computer Science, Engineering, Fine and
Applied Arts, Foreign Languages, Health Professions, Physical Sciences, and Technologies Group 4. Learning Support Programs Group 5. Medicine, Dentistry, Veterinary Medicine
Total instruction expenditures = academic salary expenditures + instructional support position expenditures + instructional operating expense expenditures.
B. Research. Funding for research is based on an amount equivalent to total graduate instruction expenditures.
C. Community Education. Funding is based on the number of Continuing Education Units produced times a dollar rate.
II. Public Service. A basic amount is funded for each institution to support a campus coordinator and one support position. Separately organized institutes are specially funded.
TOTAL FUNDING BASE: Sum of I and II (Instruction, Research, Community Education and Public Service Expenditures)
III. Academic Support. 17.7 percent X Total Funding Base = Academic Support Expenditures.
IV. Student Services and Institutional Support General Support. 23.1 percent X Total Funding Base = Student Services and Institutional Support Expenditures. Fringe Benefits. Projected actual needs for benefits such as FICA, health and life insurance, workers' compensation, etc.
Teachers' Retirement.
V. Operation and Maintenance of Physical Plant Regular Operations.Number of square feet of building space X cost per square foot = Expenditures for Operation and Maintenance of Physical Plant (in FY2000 budget: 33,711,776 square feet at $4.2487 per square foot). Major Repair/Rehabilitation Fund. 1.02% X Current Replacement Value (FY00 replacement value of $5,053,028,625) = Expenditures for MRR. Utilities. Number of square feet (as listed above) X cost of utilities per square foot ($1.6042 in FY00)= Expenditures for utilities.
VI. HEW Desegregation Programs. VII. Quality Improvement Programs. 1% of all above expenditures = Expenditures for Quality
Improvement.
TOTAL FORMULA REQUIREMENT: Total of all above expenditures (sum of I through VII)
Less Revenue
Student Tuition and Fees. Set at 25% of the total requirement, excluding Public Service and Community Education, Research, MRR, and Desegregation Programs. Graduate Assistant Fee Reduction. Other Revenue.

Student Tuition and Fees
FY2001
Fees are classified as either mandatory or elective. Mandatory fees include 1) fees mandated by the Board for all University System students, such as matriculation fees and non-resident tuition, and 2) fees mandated by the institution and approved by the Board such as student activity fees, athletic fees, health fees, and transportation fees. Elective fees are established by the institution, approved by the Chancellor, and paid by the students who elect and/or benefit from the specific service such as student housing, food service, and special class fees. The Board must authorize increases in tuition and matriculation fees to bring the student's contribution up to 25 percent of the total General Operations revenue in the Resident Instruction budget. Students who do not qualify for resident status must pay both the matriculation and non-resident fees.

Facilities
The System owned 2,957 buildings valued at $5 billion in 2000. Institutions completed $227 million in construction during 2000.
2003 Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia Last modified: February 20, 2003
Appropriations
Facilities and Capital Outlay
Among the primary responsibilities of the Board of Regents is that of providing adequate facilities at the 34 institutions. The Office of the Vice Chancellor for Facilities administers Board policy in this area. Title to all properties is vested in the Board of Regents. The Board may hold, purchase, lease, sell, convey, or otherwise dispose of property if deemed appropriate for efficient administration of the University System.
The Board of Regents uses the top-ranked building requests from each of the institutions to develop the priority list of new buildings to be included in the University System budget request submitted to the Governor each September. The institutions' lists of major repair and renovation (MRR) projects are used by the Office of Facilities in administering the annual appropriation to the Major Repair and Renovation Fund (MRRF), an element of the Regents' funding formula.
While the larger facilities constructed are typically financed through the sale of bonds issued by the Georgia State Financing and Investment Commission (GSFIC), cash appropriations from the Georgia General Assembly are also a major source of funding for construction projects. Additional funds for construction come from outside sources (i.e., private donors and grants).

Notes:The classification code indicates how the various rooms within a building were used (e.g., faculty office space) as opposed to the major function of the building (e.g., residence hall facility, instructional classroom facility).
Academic -- instruction (classrooms, laboratories, faculty offices), research, public service, cooperative extension, libraries, computing support, ancillary support.
Administrative -- executive management, administrative services, fiscal operations, physical plant operations, community relations.
Faculty and Student Support -- faculty and staff services (faculty clubs, lounges, cafeterias) and student support (health services, student centers, cafeterias).
Campus Housing -- faculty and student housing.
Other -- unassigned space (capable and incapable of use); building service (closets, stairwells); independent operations (rental property for commercial uses and outside agencies); and parking garages.

Major Repair and Rehabilitation Allocations
1996 - 2001
In accordance with the recommendations of the Study Committee on Public Higher Education Finance (1982), the day-to-day operation of the physical plant continues to be funded on the established dollars per square foot funding approach. However, to cover the non-formula component for major repairs and renovation, the Committee recommended that the appropriation be set at three-fourths of one percent of the current replacement value of all System buildings. This recommendation became effective in FY1984 but was fully funded for the first time in the FY1987 budget. Prior to FY1984, the System received a constant $2.5 million annually. In recent years, the Board of Regents has requested the State to increase the percentage of the replacement value funded to more closely reflect national recommendations.
Allocations have been used for such projects as reroofing or roof replacement, repairing/replacing boilers and chillers, upgrading electrical and other infrastructure systems, providing access for the disabled, bringing buildings up to life safety code, and the removal of hazardous materials in buildings of the University System.

Research Programs
Research Universities
Research activities serve to expand the existing body of knowledge, provide learning opportunities for graduate students, and find solutions for problems. The research mission in the University System is concentrated primarily in the four universities. In addition, Fort Valley State University has an agricultural research mission assigned to it as a result of its designation as an 1890 Land Grant Institution and operates an Agricultural Research Station at Fort Valley. Research programs carried out in the universities had a total extramural support in FY2000 of $559 million and are described below. Georgia Southern University and Valdosta State University have research missions focused on applied topics.
Georgia Institute of Technology
Georgia Tech is a major center for advanced technology in Georgia and the Southeast. The Institute conducts research of national significance, provides services and facilities to faculty, students, industry, and government agencies, and supports the economic and technological growth of the state. Research operations are carried out through a group of schools, centers, and laboratories, each performing research in a particular field of interest. Most of the research is supported by contracts with government organizations and private industry. A significant portion of the total research activity is within the broad fields of electronics, environmental science and technology, manufacturing, biotechnology, materials, microelectronics, transportation, and telecommunications. Signal processing, tribology, acoustics, fusion, combustion, rotary wing aircraft, and work on energy conservation and applications are also important areas, as are domestic and international economic development, computer technology and applications, mechanics, and the fields of biological, physical, chemical, material, earth, atmospheric, and social sciences. To assist with the State's economic development, Georgia Tech maintains field offices in Albany, Augusta, Brunswick, Carrollton, Columbus, Douglas, Dublin, Gainesville, Macon, Madison, Rome, Savannah and Warner Robins. Research is also being conducted at various sponsor locations throughout the nation and the world. Extramural support for FY2000 was $232 million.
Georgia State University
Located in the heart of downtown Atlanta, Georgia State University (GSU) is a leading research university with a wide range of extramural research programs in each of its six colleges. In addition to a broad agenda of programs that have national prominence, a number of the research programs play a significant role in supporting the growth of both the economy and technology of Georgia. Some of the research projects include the development of biotechnology and drug design, brain sciences and health, digital arts, computer design, both biological and policy research of the environment, high angular resolution astronomy, media education, brain-computer interface, and neural communication and computation. Policy research includes water planning and policy, applied research for addressing national and local policy issues, Georgia health policy, evaluation of state and local fiscal and economic policy, and international studies in which GSU faculty work in over 30 foreign countries. Various research programs in the areas of learning and development, teacher education, educational policy, adult learning and community outreach provide a strong link between GSU and the K-12 system in Georgia. Research in the field of business-to-business marketing, development of models related to national, regional and local economies, and international business training and skills development benefit from the long-term relationships that GSU has developed with national and international business communities. Innovative crosscollege teacher preparation programs, including the Biobus, serve as national models for education reform. Applied research to reduce health risks includes the study of victim
empowerment issues, current substance abuse treatment strategies, the Georgia Fatherhood Program, and the influence of nursing care on patient outcomes in U.S. Army hospitals. Georgia State University extramural support for FY2000 was $39 million.
Medical College of Georgia
Extramurally funded research programs are disease oriented and are carried out in both basic and clinical disciplines in the five schools of Medicine, Dentistry, Nursing, Allied Health Sciences, and Graduate Studies. Institutes which focus on specific research disciplines are the Georgia Institute for Prevention of Human Disease and Accidents, the Institute of Molecular Medicine and Genetics, and the Vascular Biology Center. A special initiative involves the research and development of telecommunications in health care delivery known as Telemedicine. There is an Alzheimer's program to develop and test new drugs and agents for improving memory. A specialized Heart Development Group carries out research on the origin and molecular biology of congenital heart defects. Significant priorities in research are: cancer, neurological disease, (e.g., Alzheimer's disease, epilepsy, stem cell research), cardiovascular diseases (stroke, Sickle cell disease, hypertension, heart development), and infection/inflammation research. Much of this research is translation (i.e., bench to bedside). There is considerable focus on research relating to children's diseases and health services research that includes minority and women's health. Applied and basic research places emphasis on the development of new intellectual properties, biotechnology and technology transfer. The latter is focused on the economic growth of the State and involves consortia with other universities including the Georgia Research Alliance (GRA). Sponsored awards for FY2000 was $133 million.
University of Georgia
The University of Georgia is both a land-grant and sea-grant college. All thirteen schools/colleges have extensive research programs. The following areas are representative of some of the recognized research strengths. Research in biology and chemistry is conducted in many colleges, departments, and multidisciplinary units, including the Complex Carbohydrate Research Center, the Center for Metalloenzyme Studies, the Center for Plant Cellular and Molecular Biology, the Center for Biological Resource Recovery, and the Center for Computational Quantum Chemistry. Biotechnology research focuses on plant development and production, crop protection, forest science and applications, animal improvement and health, human health, and fermentation applications. Research in the College of Pharmacy focuses on the development of new drugs and toxicology. Agricultural research is conducted at the three major Georgia Agricultural Experiment Stations in Athens, Griffin, and Tifton, and five smaller stations in the state. Research emphasis is on environmentally sound and input-efficient production practices. The Veterinary Medicine Experiment Station and the Poultry Disease Research Center in Athens conduct research on disease problems of agricultural and companion animals. The Veterinary Diagnostic Assistance Laboratories have facilities in Athens and Tifton. Environmental and ecological research is a major emphasis across several colleges, with the recognized activities in the Institute of Ecology and the Savannah River Ecology Laboratory. Marine research is concentrated at the Marine Institute of Sapelo Island, the Marine Extension Center at Brunswick, and the Skidaway Institute of Oceanography. Research strengths in other areas are highlighted in the Institute for Behavioral Research, the Center for East-West Trade Policy, the Humanities Center, the Center for Remote Sensing and Mapping Science, and the Center for Simulational Physics. Ongoing research in math, reading, and science education, as well as learning disorders, is conducted by faculty in the College of Education. Extramural support to the University of Georgia for FY2000 was $155 million.

Continuing Education and Public Service
365,149 participants enrolled in continuing education courses in FY2000. There were 20,755 programs offered in continuing education in FY2000.
2003 Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia Last modified: February 20, 2003
Continuing Education
As part of the mission of the University System, public service and continuing education act as an interface between the 34 institutions and the communities which they serve. Such activities are an extension of the traditional on-campus learning process and have been established to improve the welfare of Georgia's citizens and serve business, industry, government, and professional organizations. The public service/continuing education component consists of the following:
Instructional services--offering primarily non-degree credit work designed for the purpose of upgrading skills or personal development Applied research--finding pragmatic solutions for identified problems Consultation--providing expertise for solving problems Technical assistance--providing support for completing a task
Board policy requires that each institution offer a variety of conferences, institutes, short courses, workshops, seminars, and training programs. The principal unit awarded for participation in these non-degree credit activities is the Continuing Education Unit (C.E.U.), defined as "ten contact hours of participation in an organized continuing education experience under responsible sponsorship, capable direction, and qualified instruction."
The C.E.U. is accepted nationally as the unit for measuring participation in non-credit continuing education programs. There are two categories of continuing education activity, and only those individuals who take programs that meet the criteria for Category I may be awarded C.E.U.'s. Activities in Category I must meet administrative criteria, including being a part of an institution with a continuing education staff that has a library with reference resources and program criteria that include specifying outcomes of the learning experience and stating requirements for measurement of goals and completion of the program. Programs in Category II do not meet the criteria for inclusion in Category I but may meet the needs of the community or help satisfy the service mission of the institution. Category II activities are planned educational events of an instructional nature, with individually registered participants. "Continuing Education Activities" include both Category I and Category II programs. The rapid growth that has occurred in this area is displayed below.

Public Service
The University System of Georgia's public service programs have a rich history of contributing to Georgia's economic development. First, the University System's agricultural extension services lifted Georgia's agrarian economy out of the Great Depression. Later, Georgia Tech's Economic Development Institute brought Industrial Age technology to Georgia's manufacturers. Today, University System outreach programs are developing a knowledge workforce that creates and uses intellectual technology for the knowledge economy of tomorrow.
Highlights from FY2000 include:
373,439 Georgians are engaged in continuing education; 21,100 continuing education programs were offered.
The University System of Georgia's Public Service efforts include:
Economic Development Institute
For over 40 years, the Economic Development Institute (EDI), through its 19 regional offices and campus-based programs, has helped Georgia's business and industry become more competitive though improving productivity and quality, reducing costs, starting new operations, and implementing proven manufacturing technologies. The focus has been on technologies such as:
quality lean manufacturing information technology energy and environmental process improvement
EDI also helps communities identify opportunities for growth and develop strategies to take best advantage of those opportunities. It conducts feasibility studies and research projects, while providing local development agencies with marketing studies, local impact analyses, strategic planning assistance, and leadership development training.
EDI customers over the past two years report more than $24 million in sales increases, $15 million in operations cost saving, and over 1700 jobs added or retained. In addition, communities report almost 1400 jobs added or retained.
Advanced Technology Development Center
The Advanced Technology Development Center (ATDC) accelerates the formation and growth of technology-based companies in Georgia. ATDC provides entrepreneurs the assistance they need to rapidly bring new innovations to market. ATDC's assistance has helped establish 114 new hightechnology companies which generate more than $750 million in annual revenues and provide more than 4600 jobs.
ATDC has three business center locations: the Georgia Tech campus in Atlanta, the Georgia Center for Advanced Telecommunications Technology (GCATT) in Atlanta, and the Middle Georgia Technology Development Center in Warner Robins.
Small Business Development Center
Through the University of Georgia's Small Business Development Center (SBDC) program,
businesses can receive free one-on-one counseling from experienced business professionals.
SBDC also offers seminars, workshops, export assistance, on-site training, and publications.
Small business clients who received SBDC consulting services last year had business growth three times the rate of average U.S. businesses and received more than $57 million in start-up and expansion capital.
During FY 2000, SBDC provided 38,560 hours of business consultation for clients. Almost 14,554 people attended 1,012 programs on starting and expanding small businesses.
ICAPP Access
ICAPP Access provides easy access to the vast resources of University System of Georgia's 34 colleges and universities. Two examples of ICAPP Access products are:
ICAPP Database of Faculty Expertise and Funding Opportunities - allows a key word search of University System faculty and staff expertise, and links research funding sources and potential collaborators.
Catalog of University System of Georgia Centers, Institutes, and Special Programs - an inventory of more than 200 institutes, centers and programs of excellence that are part of the 34 institutions of the University System of Georgia. A directory is available in printed form and through the Internet, allowing businesses everywhere to access the concentrated wealth of information and expertise available

2003 Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia Last modified: February 20, 2003
Brief History
The beginnings of public higher education in the State can be traced to 1784 when the General Assembly set aside 40,000 acres of land for the endowment of "a college or seminary of learning." During the following year, a charter was granted for the establishment of Franklin College, now the University of Georgia. The state later provided appropriations for establishing the following branches: School of Technology in Atlanta, 1885 (now Georgia Tech); Georgia Normal and Industrial College for Girls, Milledgeville, 1889 (now Georgia College & State Univ.); Georgia State Industrial College for Colored Youths, Savannah, 1890 (now Savannah State University); and the South Georgia Normal School, Valdosta, 1906 (now Valdosta State University). Later, the legislature established an agricultural and mechanical arts (A&M) school in each congressional district.
In 1929, Governor L. G. Hardman established a committee charged with recommending reorganization of higher education. The most significant idea was the creation of a central governing board. On August 28, 1931, the Reorganization Act was signed which created the Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia. The Act called for the governor to appoint eleven members, one from each congressional district, and one at large.
In its January 1932 meeting, the Board adopted the following Statement of Plan:
It is the conviction of the Board of Regents that the people of Georgia intended to ordain by the Act creating the Board that the twenty-six institutions comprising the University System should no longer function as separate, independent, and unrelated entities competing with each other for patronage and financial support.
The manifest purpose of the Act creating the Board of Regents is to unify and coordinate the work of these institutions so that the educational program of each shall be integrated with that of every other institution and with the system as a whole. The result aimed at is a correlated, harmonious, and symmetrical structure free from wasteful duplications, but providing the maximum of educational opportunity to the students of the State. In short, the emphasis has been shifted from the interests of particular institutions to the interests of the State.
While the traditions, the welfare and the prestige of the several branches of the system will be an object of care on the part of the Board, all of their problems are to be finally resolved by the answer to the question: What will best serve the educational interests of the State as a whole?
With this as the paramount consideration, the constant aim of this body will be to establish and maintain a system of higher education that will command the sympathy and support of our educational leaders, and at the same time successfully meet our needs by offering the young men and women of Georgia the maximum of education.
To accomplish this result, the Regents will, after careful study, take such steps that to them seem best to coordinate and unify these institutions so that they will be related in purpose and regulated in scope. The only competition in which these schools will hereafter engage will be for preeminence in service and scholarship.
The Reorganization Act of 1931 transferred to the new Board the responsibility for 26 institutions. The Board began immediate reorganization by abolishing the A&M schools and two additional schools and creating two other institutions. The net result was that the System was reduced to 18
institutions. The earliest recorded enrollment was 8,035 in Fall 1933. The System was appropriated $1,900,500 by the State for 1932-33 but received only $1,624,928. In 1941, the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools withdrew the accreditation of 10 University System institutions because of irregularities and incidences of outside interference into academic activities at the institutions. In 1943, newly-elected Governor Ellis Arnall sponsored a constitutional amendment to remove such interference by making the Board a constitutional body. The amendment was overwhelmingly approved by the voters.
The principles enumerated in the 1932 policy statement have guided the development of a unified system. Today the Board continues to have constitutional authority to govern, control, and manage the University System, as reaffirmed in the approval of the new state constitution in 1982. These powers include the authority for program approval or discontinuance, internal allocation of the budget, facilities construction, and decisions concerning adding new institutions, upgrading or downgrading the level of an institution, or closure or merger of institutions.
The University System is currently composed of 34 institutions (four universities, two regional universities, 13 state universities, two state colleges, and 13 two-year colleges). In addition, one state college, two two-year colleges, and one state university maintain a postsecondary vocational-technical unit in cooperation with the State Board of Technical and Adult Education.
