PROGRAM CONCEPT

The Campus Management Services Program is designed to recognize positions
that are essential to the management of campus programs and activities.
Persons appointed to positions in the Campus Management Services Program
must have knowledge and experience in the principles, practices and trends
of management.

The Campus Management Services Program includes two types of positions:

Administrative Support Managers; and (2) Unit Heads.

Administrative Support Managers provide management support to
Deans, Directors, Department Chairman and Administrative
Officers.  They are responsible for long range planning,
coordinating, organizing, staffing and supervising in the areas
of budget, contract and grant administration, academic personnel    
administration, staff personnel administration, purchasing,
expenditure control, space utilization, building and equipment
security and maintenance and other services which support a
teaching, research, clinical or administrative function of the
campus.

Unit Heads are responsible for the program as well as the management
of a unit.

Administrative Support Managers and Unit Heads independently exercise
discretionary powers to solve managerial and/or program problems and
are responsible for directing the work of others, hiring or releasing
employees or recommending such actions, training, defining positions
and determining methods, techniques, systems and materials required.

Positions are excluded from the Campus Management Services Program
when their compensation is based primarily on specialized professional
rather than on managerial skills.

Positions which are responsible for the resolution of problems
having a short-range or limited impact on the goals of the
department are not included in this program.

The titles for the respective levels are summarized as follows:

Level I        - Management Services Officer I
Level II       - Management Services Officer II
