• W26355792 abstract "This five-section paper describes how the Minnesota State Colleges and Universities (MnSCU) system, the largest system of higher education in the state, determines what degree programs will be created, based on needs for workers in various occupations in the state. The paper begins by discussing why connecting demographic trends, learner segments, and labor market information become crucial not only in helping to decide which new program ideas to implement, but also to assist in balancing the competing demands for a regional and statewide new program development strategy. The next section of the paper describes briefly a potential new program approval process that considers a supply and demand analysis in the approval of new program ideas solicited from MnSCU institutions. By refining the supply and demand analysis described in Appendix B, a more precise estimate for the total number of additional graduates that would potentially result from implementing the new program approval process is also estimated. The last two sections provide preliminary results from the analysis, and conclusions and implications are drawn about why MnSCU in particular, but all postsecondary institutions in general, must understand how labor market information could contribute to mediating the conflicting and competing interests of stakeholders in the area of new program development strategies. MnSCU serves 225,000 students annually in credit courses and nearly 95,000 students in non-credit courses. The system includes 7 state universities and 27 community, technical, and consolidated colleges located on 53 campuses across Minnesota.

LE New Program Development Strategy and Supply/Demand Analysis: The Relationship Between Postsecondary Degree Program Outcomes and Occupational Needs in Minnesota Pradeep Kotamraju, Ph.D., Bruce Steuernagel, and Mary Jacquart, Ph.D. Introduction Minnesota State Colleges and Universities (MnSCU) is the largest system of higher education in the state, serving 225,000 students annually in credit courses and nearly 95,000 students in non-credit courses. The system includes 7 state universities and 27 community, technical, and consolidated colleges located on 53 campuses across the state. By virtue of its unique makeup of twoand four-year higher education institutions providing a wide array of occupational and technical education, the liberal arts and general education, MnSCU strives to deliver flexible and responsive education and training to meet the lifelong learning needs of individuals at different stages of their work life. MnSCU institutions have always been major players when it comes to building the economic vitality of Minnesota regions as well as statewide. Their strategic role in workforce and economic development, however, has come under greater scrutiny whenever evidence appears that points to worker shortages and/or a mismatch between program offerings and workforce needs. Nevertheless, industry need is but one of an ever-increasing number of multiple and conflicting missions that MnSCU institutions are being asked to meet by a variety of stakeholders. Besides personal study and career interests of students and learners, other interests include the traditional goals of wider access to academic and occupational education, contracted and customized training, and workforce and economic development imperatives driven by local, regional, state, and national policy. These competing stakeholder interests have traditionally influenced the way in which MnSCU institutions offer their degree programs. When observing academic program activity at MnSCU institutions, there is an ever-present churn. New courses and programs are continuously introduced, those that have outlived their need are closed, and existing programs are modified as campuses attempt to balance internal and external stakeholder interests. This paper addresses only one aspect of this churn how new program development strategies developed by individual MnSCU campuses address the underor oversupply of graduates in meeting Minnesota's short-term and long-term occupational need. In 1995, when the then separate Technical College System, the Community College System, and the State University System all merged into the MnSCU System, the Minnesota State Legislature mandated the creation of a consolidated two-year college that was made up of a previously independent technical college and a community college. There are currently 11 consolidated colleges within the MnSCU System." @default.
