University Budget Committee
The President has put in place a more streamlined approach to building the University’s budget and developing its multi-year financial plan. The University Budget Committee (UBC) is advisory to the President and reflects a commitment to a shared role in institutional governance. Guiding principles that define the committee structure include a meaningful level of faculty participation.
Regis University’s committee has 12 voting members. The committee’s charge is to develop and recommend a budget and multi-year financial plan to the President through his/her Senior Leadership Team. The committee is composed of the following members:
- Six Academic Affairs representatives of up to four faculty. One of the faculty member representatives is appointed to the Board’s Resource Planning Committee. Each Academic Affairs appointment is for a two-year term. Members may be reappointed for another term.
- Six staff members. With the exception of the CFO, each staff appointment is for a two-year term. Members may be reappointed for another term.
Tuition and fee recommendations are submitted to the President through the Senior Leadership Team for review and approval. The multi-year financial plan, including the one-year budget, is developed and submitted to the President through the Senior Leadership Team for review and approval.
