Section 6: Creates Section 61.0596, "University Funding for Excellence in Specific Programs and Fields; Incentive Grants". Provides that the section is to help general academic teaching institutions that are not categorized as "research universities" or "emerging research universities" in the state system to develop and maintain specific programs or fields of study of the highest national rank or recognition for that type of program or field. To that end, directs the higher education coordinating board to award incentive grants to general academic teaching institutions that the board considers to have demonstrated the greatest commitment to success in developing or improving the quality of the institution's existing degree program. Requires institutions to use such grants for faculty recruitment or other faculty support for the degree program for which the grant is awarded, including establishment of endowed faculty positions or enhancement of faculty compensation. Specifies that an institution may designate only one degree program at a time for consideration for new incentive grant funding. Directs the higher education coordinating board to set a series of benchmarks for each degree program designated by an institution. Provides the institution becomes eligible for incentive grant funding for each benchmark the board determines the institution to have met. Provides that in addition to supporting programs designated to receive incentive grants, the board must provide additional funds as the board deems appropriate to help general academic teaching institutions maintain the excellence of programs or fields of study that have achieved the highest national ranking or recognition for that type of program or field. http://www.legis.state.tx.us/tlodocs/81R/billtext/pdf/HB00051F.pdf
