Policies & Procedures

Creating and developing partnerships with private and corporate sponsors, educational institutions, and federal and state agencies is an important pathway to fulfill the mission of the University. Centers and institutes are representative of how this process is maximized. Centers and Institutes are usually multidisciplinary, have an important educational component, and may be established when a collection of faculty have secured long-term funding commitments to pursue unique research, public service, and/or instructional endeavors.

The objective of The Policies and Procedures for Planning, Establishing, and Reviewing University Centers and Institutes is to provide a uniform framework governing the establishment, review, and discontinuation of centers and institutes to ensure the effective and efficient use of resources. Specific types of centers and institutes, as well as the regulations and procedures pertaining to these individual categories, are defined in these regulations (adapted from UNC-OP Document: Regulations for Planning, Establishing, and Reviewing Centers and Institutes in The University of North Carolina, No. 400.5{R}, Amended 5/6/2004).
