Policies
Texas Christian University policies, applicable to faculty, staff, students, and visitors of the University, are designed to support university compliance with federal and state regulations, promote best practices, and provide expectations for conducting University business. Visitors include third-party consultants, vendors and contractors when they are doing business with TCU; individuals who perform services for TCU as volunteers; and guests and other third parties under circumstances within TCU’s control.
University-wide policies are being migrated to PolicyTech - the platform and management software TCU will use to manage and store policies. PolicyTech does not currently contain an exhaustive list of University-wide policies; however, existing policies are being transitioned and new policies will be added as they are approved. This repository system is intended to provide convenient access to University-wide polices and it will be the definitive source for the most current policies.
PolicyTech provides the ability to create and manage University policies, including the tracking of revisions and maintaining a history of any policy changes. As a part of the migration, policies will be assigned to departments and are searchable by subject matter, department, document owner, or via a custom search.
