Tex. Educ. Code Section 111.87
Junior College Cooperative Education Program

(a)

The university may establish and coordinate a cooperative program with one or more junior college districts under which junior college students enrolled in those districts may be employed by the university to work at the Lyndon B. Johnson Space Center on a part-time or full-time basis.

(b)

The Lyndon B. Johnson Space Center shall:

(1)

place, supervise, and evaluate each student who participates in the cooperative program; and

(2)

ensure that the student performs work related to the study of science, mathematics, or engineering to encourage students to study those disciplines at an institution of higher education.

(c)

The junior college in which a student who participates in the cooperative program is enrolled shall, in cooperation with the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board, determine the number, if any, and type of credits toward a certificate or an associate degree the student may be given for participation in the program. If it is determined that the student is to be given credit toward academic course requirements for a certificate or an associate degree, the number and type of credits must be based on the type of work and the number of hours of work in which the student participates.

(d)

In establishing and coordinating the cooperative program, the university may use state funds appropriated for that purpose and gifts, grants, and donations solicited for that purpose. The university shall use money it receives in accordance with this subsection to pay the costs associated with the cooperative program, including the wages of students who participate in the cooperative program.
