South Dakota Public Universities and Research Center
South Dakota Public Universities and Research Center, also known as University Center, was a cooperative higher education delivery system in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. Six universities offered classes at this site: University of South Dakota, Dakota State University, South Dakota State University, Black Hills State University, South Dakota School of Mines and Technology, and Northern State University.[1]
In 2006, the South Dakota Board of Regents received authorization to obtain a large area in Sioux Falls to construct a new campus for its Sioux Falls offerings.[2]
The South Dakota Board of Regents changed the name of the University Center to The Community College for Sioux Falls in April 2019.[3]
In June 2022, the Board of Regents formally ended the multi-university cooperative, named the University of South Dakota as the primary provider of academic offerings, and renamed the campus the University of South Dakota (USD) — Sioux Falls.[4]
