History

The Tennessee Higher Education Commission was created in 1967 by the Tennessee General Assembly to achieve coordination and foster unity with regard to higher education. The Commission coordinates two systems of higher education: the University of Tennessee institutions governed by the University of Tennessee Board of Trustees, and the state universities, community colleges, and technology centers governed by the Tennessee Board of Regents. There are currently nine public universities, 13 community colleges, and 27 technology centers in Tennessee that serve over 245,000 students collectively.

The Commission is composed of nine lay members appointed by the Governor for six year terms representing congressional districts of the State, three Constitutional Officers who are ex-officio voting members (Comptroller of the Treasury, State Treasurer, and Secretary of State), two ex-officio student members who serve two year terms, and the Executive Director of the State Board of Education as an ex-officio non-voting member.

Our Vision

From the Tennessee Higher Education Commission 2005-2010 Master Plan

Through the establishment of a public agenda built upon civic, corporate, and community partnerships, Tennessee higher education will be able to better serve the broad needs of the state and create a workforce that is able to compete in the knowledge economy. Such partnerships will ensure that all students are prepared for post-secondary education and have access to high quality educational programs that expand knowledge creation and civic responsibility.
