Texas Education Coordinating Board - 18 Characteristics of Texas Doctoral Programs Requirement

In 2008, the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board (THECB) set a requirement for all state public institutions of higher education to analyze and submit data about 18 characteristics of doctoral programs offered. You can learn more regarding the THECB and requirements at their web site located at: http://www.thecb.state.tx.us/.

As required by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board, we are providing a listing of the 18 Characteristics of University of Houston Doctoral Programs. Students can find detailed information about the specific doctoral programs offered by UH, including enrollment, faculty, and more. Each UH department's PhD program listed includes the link to the 18 characteristics for that specific doctoral program through the 2012-2012 academic year.
