Budget Services<\/h1>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Under the guidance and direction of the Chief Financial Officer, Budget Services <\/strong>plans and oversees the activities of the biennial and interim budget cycles for internal, external, and capital planning. It facilitates the process of translating the university’s academic and administrative plans into budgets utilized for state funding requests, internal allocations and utilization, and execution of the university’s strategic goals and objectives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Working with the university community, Budget Services assesses and monitors fiscal performance in accordance with approved budget plans for all campus units. In addition, Budget Services plays a key role in performing accurate, comprehensive and timely revenue and expense analysis used for informed executive decision-making, and internal and external reporting. Budget Services is also responsible for position management, support and training of unit budget managers, and the maintenance of budget schedules and process tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
