    The Board and Department of Higher Education

    The Massachusetts Board of Higher Education (the Board) is the Commonwealth’s state higher education authority with coordinating and regulatory authority over all public and private higher education institutions operating in the Commonwealth and authorized to grant degrees. The Board is staffed by the Department of Higher Education (the Department), which is run by a Commissioner who serves as the executive and administrative head of the Department, and Secretary to the Board.

Each community college and state university institution is governed by its board of trustees, while the 5 UMass campuses are overseen by the UMass board of trustees. The Board has coordination and oversight responsibilities for the entire System, including the responsibility to analyze the present and future goals, needs, and requirements of public higher education and to establish goals to achieve a well-coordinated, quality system of public higher education.
