Senior Academic Coordinator

Purpose

The Senior Academic Coordinator provides advanced academic administrative and operational coordination for Curriculum & Academic Administration (CAA), with responsibility for recurring undergraduate curriculum, academic program, compliance, committee, documentation, and institutional workflow activities.

The position supports implementation of The University of Texas at Austin's new Core Curriculum while coordinating established processes across CAA's broader portfolio, including undergraduate academic program development and modification, catalog and addendum activity, low-producing program review, professional licensure, HB 2504 and public course information, faculty review, and institutional reporting.

The Senior Academic Coordinator provides the operational infrastructure needed to ensure established CAA processes are timely, documented, consistently executed, and carried through required approval stages. The position maintains master calendars and tracking systems, coordinates documentation and routine communications, supports faculty and committee review processes, and monitors outstanding actions and deadlines.

The position complements, rather than assumes, the strategic leadership, policy and regulatory interpretation, academic approval, substantive Core Curriculum administration, and institutional decision-making responsibilities assigned to the Director, Core Curriculum Manager, executive leadership, and other appropriate decision-makers.

The position reports to the Director of Curriculum & Academic Administration and works collaboratively with CAA staff, faculty, colleges and schools, the Office of the Registrar, the Graduate School, UT System, the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board, and other academic and administrative partners.

Must be eligible to work in the US on a full-time basis for any employer without sponsorship.
