General Information
Department organizational structure is a foundational element of any organization.
Currently the easiest way to see Metro State Organizational Departments is on www.metrostate.edu Departments, A-Z page.
Note: There are some minor differences/additional departments in ISRS that Registrar's Office maintains.
Organizational Department Change Request
The Organizational Department Change Request is used:
- To request changes to the university’s organizational chart structure (department names and hierarchical relationships) across our core University systems.These changes often also have impact on employee home departments and on curriculum or course to department relationships.
- In support of definitions and timing outlined in University Policy 1700 and Procedure 170: Organizational Department Structure.
Coordination and timing restrictions related to these changes are critical to ensure alignment with the many university and student-impacting processes that rely on this core data and to ultimately ensure clarity for the organization and to minimize negative student impacts.
All submitted requests must be submitted on behalf of a member of President’s Executive Cabinet who has approved the change prior to submission.
As noted in the University Policy & Procedure, all changes must be approved by Metro State’s President. Once approved, the change and communication surrounding it, including department head responsibilities related to the change, will be coordinated. If your change is not approved you will be notified.
This process is coordinated by IET in conjunction with HR and Registrar’s Office (owners of the core systems housing organizational department data that must stay in sync)
