Governance of Oregon Institute of Technology

Prior to 2015, the Oregon Institute of Technology was governed by the Oregon State Board of Higher Education, the governing board for the seven public universities in Oregon. In April 2014, the State Board of Higher Education authorized the Oregon Institute of Technology to establish a Board of Trustees, appointed by the Governor and approved by the Senate.

Effective July 1, 2015, the University became an “independent public body” governed by the Board of Trustees with every authority necessary or appropriate for the operation of a major public university. The Oregon Tech Board of Trustees approves the University’s mission, programs, budgets, and strategies; and works with the Higher Education Coordinating Commission (HECC) to provide final approval for the University’s mission and any new academic programs.
