CLAS Fiscal Affairs

Financial Objectives1. Balance current budget.2. Plan next 4 years budget.3. Create a reserve (ability to respond to opportunities).4. Reviews with Faculty Finance Committee.

Academic Objectives1. Promote excellence in core CLAS mission

---- invest in strategic areas.• Hire in areas that contribute to mission.• Meet undergrad. and graduate education goals

Structural Objectives• Streamline administrative services.• Review, and enhance, recalibrate or maintain academic

units.

Implementation: Budget Restructuring

Mission oriented: Variable among Divisions of CLAS (Humanities, Nat. Sciences, Social Sciences)

Alignment of Base (OPS/OE) Budgets

Align OE Allocation/ Faculty/ Approp. Area

Infrastructure needs (Lab. sciences, Centers, etc.)

Align OPS Allocation/ Approp. Area/ Productivity (SCH & grad degree production)/ Total (Fac. + TA FTE) Research productivity (awards, initiatives…) Private Giving, Foundations

Strategic Planning…. Invest in some key areas

Guidelines for Chairs/Directors

Managing Faculty and Fiscal Resources

• Chairs: Management responsibilities:(1) faculty assignments

(2) budget, personnel, enrollment , external relations)

• Provide departments with key mission metrics(enrollment, graduation, grants, private giving)

• Minimum class enrollments (review with CLAS)

• Minimum class sizes for TA assignments (Variable: Lab, discussions, etc.)

• Students need exposure to faculty at all levels

OPS Recommendations

Primary use:

• Undergraduate teaching & graduate student training

• High quality undergraduate education experience (smaller classes, more individual teaching)

Secondary:

• Assist advising & curricular missions– Senior TAs to coordinate labs– Development of new curricular areas– Title VI mission: teaching & outreach

Tertiary:

• Investment to grow PhD program• New faculty hires (RA) by negotiation
