Course Overview:
Budgeting and planning are managerial strategies to ensure that institutions of higher education
are fulfilling their desired missions, aligning resources with their visions and values, whilesimultaneously utilizing resources in an efficient, effective, and equitable manner. Given the
political and economic climate of higher education finance, a special emphasis on accountabilityand evaluation has become central to budgeting and planning policy discussions. This course
explores these issues and is primarily designed for students interested in higher educationfinance, institutional change, higher education administration, student affairs, and higher
education policy/governance although it is open to students of all academic or professional
interests. Students are not expected to have any prior knowledge or experience in the fields offinance, budgeting, or accounting. Rather, this course is an accessible exploration into the
underlying principles and essential skills necessary for designing, critiquing, and implementing
budgets and plans.

Course Assignments:
Budget analysis: Due September 20.
Analyze the UVU Appropriated Operating Budgets 2005-06 to 2009-10 document byanswering the questions distributed in class on September 13.
Budget scenario: Due October 4
The Board of Trustees at Midstate College hired a new president, Susan Thompson, whois scheduled to begin her tenure on January 1, 2011. The board hired her with the
primary expectation that she would implement budgetary reforms to ensure that the
university is operating efficiently and effectively. The board also expects her to improveeducational quality and the value of a Midstate College degree. The sentiment of most
Trustees was that the previous president was not diligent with regard to cost containment
and that the incremental budget strategy was not a flexible tool for a decentralized
institution. Board members will support her budget reform recommendations, so long as
they ensure quality enhancement and improve efficiencies without eroding the colleges
mission.
As the Chief Financial Officer of Midstate College, you have been charged with the task
of writing a 5 to 7 page (double-spaced) policy memo to President Thompson offering
guidance towards developing and implementing this significant task. This memo shouldhighlight potential strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats of undergoing
budgetary reforms on campus. Reflect on course material to raise critical points for the
president to consider and provide insight into the intended (and unintended) outcomes of
her endeavor.
Papers will be assessed according to writing quality, application of course content, ability
to frame the topic within budget/planning context, and the appropriateness ofconclusions. Additional material will be made available in class on September 20.
Pre-presentation: Due October 25.
The purpose of the pre-presentation is to prepare students for their final project.Students are expected to share their potential ideas, discuss their analytical perspectives,
and introduce their general objectives as they relate to the final project. The purpose of

this assignment is to reflect upon course material and intentionally prepare your thoughts
for the final assignment.
Individual presentations should be no longer than 8 minutes. Students will be evaluated
based upon their ability to frame the discussion around course content, application ofcourse material, description of purpose, and clarity of communication.
Example questions to consider:
What are the primary topics am I interested in exploring? How can this line of inquiry build my capacity to be a critical
researcher/practitioner?
What elements of budgeting/planning do I want to explore in further detail? To what extent can my interests be integrated into this final project?
Planning scenario: Due November 8.
In her first state of the college address, President Thompson called on revisitingMidstate Colleges strategic plan, Vision for Excellence. Vision was created in 1995 and
set a 10-year plan for the college to achieve academic excellence, improve productivity,meet community and state needs, and expand opportunities to underserved students.
Unfortunately, no members of the Board of Trustees, Faculty Senate, or PresidentsCabinet have ascertained whether Midstate achieved the objectives of this plan. Perhapsmore troubling is that these principals have not yet explored the merits of what should be
included in a new Vision plan.
As the Chief Operating Officer, you have been asked to write a 5 to 7 page (double-spaced) memo that will help the president articulate the parameters and purposes of a new
plan. Discuss the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats that she may
encounter in her ambitious endeavor. Help her anticipate strategies and tactics thataddress some of the topics expressed in our course material and class discussions.
Papers will be assessed according to writing quality, application of course content, ability
to frame the topic within budget/planning context and the appropriateness of conclusions.
Final project and presentation: Due December 13.
Masters students:Identify a higher education policy or governance topic of interest to you (e.g. student
retention, finance, privatization, diversity, information technology, P-16 reform, student
learning outcomes, student financial aid, etc). Reflect upon the nature of your topicwithin the context of budgeting and planning. Write a comprehensive analysis of this
topic exploring the ways in which budgeting/planning techniques can impact the quality,
equity, efficiency, or effectiveness of your topical area.

If, for example, student retention is the topic of interest, one could analyze how a plan
can be developed to ensure that the University of Utah is achieving its desired objectives
related to student success. What would the elements of this plan look like? How wouldone go about operationalizing such an endeavor? What challenges/opportunities can be
expected? Why are certain elements included or excluded? How does one know the
retention efforts worked? In your paper, discuss how a higher education administrator
would go about developing, implementing, sustaining, and/or assessing your topic. Offer
a critique of the implications associated with these efforts. Be sure to provide contextaround your topic and a rationale/purpose statement clarifying how you are establishing a
connection between your topical interest and budgeting/planning.
Doctoral students:Identify a higher education policy or governance topic of interest to you (e.g. student
retention, finance, privatization, diversity, information technology, P-16 reform, studentlearning outcomes, student financial aid, etc). Reflect upon the nature of your topic
within the context of budgeting and planning. Write a comprehensive analysis of thistopic exploring the ways in which budgeting/planning can be integrated into the extant
body of research.
If, for example, student retention is the topic of interest, one could analyze Astins I-E-O
model and discuss it in terms of performance budgeting. What elements of performance-
based budgets could be integrated into this model? Why might a university link
performance metrics to student service budgets? What are the implications of doing so?
In your paper, include a literature review of your topic and frame the context within thebroad domain of budgeting and planning. Offer a critique of the extant literature and besure to provide context around your topic and a rationale/purpose statement clarifying
how you are establishing a connection between your topical interest and
budgeting/planning. Doctoral students are expected to integrate a minimum of 10 peer-reviewed sources excluding those read for class.
All students:
Papers will be assessed according to writing quality, application of course content, abilityto frame the topic within budget/planning context, and the appropriateness of
conclusions. Papers should follow APA format and should be between 17 to 20 pages in
length, excluding bibliographies and appendices. We will spend class time discussing anddeveloping ideas for these papers. Papers will be due on December 13.
Presentations will account for 5 of the potential 40 points for this assignment. Individual
presentations should be no longer than 10 minutes. Students will be evaluated basedupon their ability to frame the discussion around course content, application of course
material, description of purpose, and clarity of communication.
