Line Item: Southeastern Continuing Education Center

Function

In 2006, USU restructured the existing Continuing Education organization and created a university regional campus system, which includes distance education. The reporting line moved to the Provost's Office and reinforced the concept of one university, one faculty, one degree, and one curriculum.

Area regional campuses and distance education centers offer USU academic courses and degree programs in underserved and rural communities. USU has four line items for the regional campuses and distance education centers, including the USU Southeastern Continuing Education Center, located in Moab.

The Southeastern Continuing Education Center had 142 annualized FTE students (budget-related). The Center's goal is to have 300-500 students. Students can get a bachelor's degree in any of 19 disciplines or an associate degree in one of four disciplines.
