University Policies

New Mexico Tech Policies help to ensure coordinated compliance with applicable laws and regulations, to promote operational efficiencies, to enhance the Institute mission, or to reduce institutional risk. In addition, New Mexico Tech Policies help to ensure integrity and other fundamental institutional values that define the vision of New Mexico Tech, such as academic freedom, freedom of expression, shared governance, maintaining collegiality and citizenship, and upholding accountability for professionalism and diplomacy among administration, faculty, staff, students, other constituents and maintaining accountability to our accrediting and regulating organizations.

See the list below for policy information and website direction.

New Mexico Tech's Policy Development, Amendment and Rescindment Policy, which is informally known as the Policy on Policy, governs the development, amendment and rescindment of New Mexico Tech policies. As part of the process outlined in this document some draft university policies are subject to a 15 day review and comment period. Such draft policies are posted on this website
