Many institutions want to grow enrollment by launching new programs. But identifying the right ones to drive growth at your institution, in your specific markets, is hard. Too often, new programs fall short of expectations. Worse, some prove to be expensive mistakes.

NEW PROGRAMS CONSULTING

Some institutions appreciate additional support as they develop and implement a new programs selection process. This is especially important when some new programs may involve a cultural shift, a refined sense of mission, or a new award level, subject area, location, or modality. UQ’s team of expert consultants can help your institution establish processes that are right for your institution, interpret data wisely, and effectively manage the change that often comes with adding new programs.

We can also help you assess your policies and governance structures and make adjustments that make it easier for you to both honor your mission and respond more nimbly to changing market conditions.
