Competency Level Journey
Home Department Academic Affairs - 30000
Primary Purpose of Organizational Unit
Academic Affairs Divisional Operations ( AADO) supports the Provost in the oversight of divisional personnel and financial resources. This unit has three primary functions: (1) Academic Administration, (2) Academic Resource Administration which includes a common support function that provides business administration support to divisional units that do not have a dedicated business officer, and (3) divisional marketing and communication coordination.
Academic Affairs Resource Administration ( AARA) provides both operational/transactional support and data/analysis that enables planning, informed decision-making, and business modeling. We believe the AARA team advances the Division of Academic Affairs through subject matter experts that integrate across the division to promote and ensure success by seeking solutions while advocating for accountability. The Division of Academic Affairs is comprised of 13 major units (including five academic colleges, seven functional areas, and one Provost level center) and over 100 departmental units, which represents approximately 75% of a $300M university budget and about 60% of a nearly 1,900 permanent and time-limited employees.
