Academic Plan 1990-2005
Date: Dec 26, 1990Type: Strategic Plan
This document outlines the academic planning and vision for the Graduate Division at UCSC, aiming to increase graduate student enrollment to 20% of the student body by 2005 and enhance the institution's standing among top research universities. It critically analyzes current graduate enrollment plans and proposes a vision centered on building out existing programs, adding new professional and Ph.D. programs, and explicitly focusing on training college and university professors. Strategic themes include cultural and ethnic diversity, environmental studies, K-12 education, technology, and global systems with an emphasis on the Pacific Rim. The plan suggests radical rethinking, including the potential for a satellite campus, to achieve a target of 3,000 graduate students by 2005.
University of California Funding Streams Proposal 2011
Date: Dec 21, 2010Type: Strategic Plan
This document outlines a proposal to significantly reform the University of California's fund allocation methodologies across its campuses. The core principle involves allowing all campus-generated funds, including Educational Fee funds, indirect cost recovery, and patent revenues, to be retained by their source campus, moving away from previous complex redistribution practices. To ensure continued support for central operations, a new broad-based assessment will be implemented on campuses. The proposal also introduces changes to undergraduate financial aid, maintaining systemwide goals through targeted redistribution, and eliminates cross-campus redistribution for graduate financial aid. Furthermore, revised methodologies are proposed for the distribution of future State funding augmentations and reductions. The overarching aim is to simplify financial processes, enhance transparency, and incentivize campuses to maximize revenue generation, with implementation targeted for the 2011-12 fiscal year.

University Of California, Santa Cruz Report 2008-2011
Date: Sep 10, 2008Type: Strategic Plan
This report from the Senate-Administration Task Force addresses the problem of low ladder-rank faculty salaries at the University of California, Santa Cruz, relative to other UC campuses. It proposes a three-component plan for increasing competitiveness: targeted salary increases focusing on Assistant, Associate, and early Full Professors; systematic changes to the personnel review process to provide greater monetary rewards for above-normal performance; and establishing an annual report to monitor salary competitiveness. The plan sets goals to equalize median off-scale dollars with the next lowest UC campus by July 1, 2009, and to match the UC systemwide median faculty salary by July 1, 2011, thereby enhancing faculty recruitment and retention.
