Business Systems Analyst

Project Backgroud
The Assistant Dean of Physical and Biological Sciences in partnership with the Executive Vice Chancellor Office, Anne Pham, is urgently seeking a solution to enable curriculum budgeting. This need is driven by the recent retirement of a legacy Filemaker application, CCLP (Campus Curriculum Leave and Planning) which historically provided this functionality but the replacement system, CourseDog, only covers the curriculum planning and course approval process and did not meet the budgeting and forecasting requirements. Additionally the Chancellor is launching a new budget process called Fresh Air which will require instructional budgeting data from the Divisions. UC Santa Cruz has five divisions and a college system that require the need to integrate their curriculum processes with the budget process.
Seeking senior business analyst for three months to assist in gathering requirements to formulate a short and long-term solution.
