Implementation Strategies

Implementation strategies to support a new reality

The scale and type of changes required will take time and must draw on the talents and ideas of all our employees. Several high-level strategies will be employed as we implement our new financial reality. 

  • Adjust approach to aspects of central funding and financial management that may incentivize different behaviors and achieve savings.

  • Identify campus-level targeted program reductions and net revenue generation goals.

  • Support efforts that result in efficiencies within units and for the whole campus.

  • Identify and support efforts that result in net new and/or increased revenue sources.

  • Provide unit level savings/revenue generation targets and require units to have balanced annual operating budgets.

  • Frame faculty hiring planning in the context of the strategic plan and funding constraints.

  • Increase efforts to influence UC system-level decisions, programs, and state advocacy to support campus efforts.
