I am pleased to announce the recruitment for the position of Associate Vice Provost--Undergraduate 
Studies.  This position is available effective January 3, 2008, for a five-year, renewable term.  
The Associate Vice Provost will work closely with the Vice Provost--Undergraduate Studies and will

Undergraduate Studies.

Primary responsibilities include a leadership role for the regularized Summer Sessions and year-
round instruction; management of supplemental instructional funding; admissions, enrollment 
management, and institutional research issues in collaboration with the Offices of Admissions, 
Resource Management and Planning, SARI, the Academic Senate, and the undergraduate colleges; a 
leadership role in conjunction with the Office of the Registrar on issues related to graduation 
rates, enrollment, admissions, Academic Senate regulation enforcement, the registration system, 
course approval system, classroom space, degree audit system, and the publication and 
digitalization of the General Catalog; and liaison role with the Office of the Vice Chancellor--
Student Affairs, Advising Services, Financial Aid, Learning Skills Center, Student Housing, and 
the Office of Admissions on issues related to undergraduates.

Additional duties include, but are not limited to, developing and administering undergraduate 
education initiatives in collaboration with undergraduate deans and associate deans to enrich 
the undergraduate experience, and facilitating the Academic Senate consultation process 
regarding undergraduate matters. 

Candidates should be members of the Academic Senate and have a deep understanding of the issues 
involved in the effective delivery of high quality undergraduate instructional programs, as well 
as the ability to work collaboratively and effectively with faculty groups.

Applications should include a cover letter, a current curriculum vitae, and any additional 
supporting information the candidate chooses to provide.  Nominations or applications should be 
submitted to the Office of the Provost-Undergraduate Studies, 5th Floor, Mrak Hall, by
