The Baskin School of Engineering (BE) is a dynamic professional school environment with a strong focus on expanding graduate programs at the MS and PhD levels. Faculty and graduate students come to BE from all over the world, bringing a global perspective to emerging challenges in 21st Century engineering education, and creating a culturally and intellectually diverse community for collaborative interdisciplinary research and teaching. The Office of Graduate Student Affairs in BE is responsible and accountable for the overall development, management and coordination of all programmatic activities and support services related to graduate programs. This wide scope of responsibility requires extensive knowledge of pertinent policies and procedures pertaining to graduate education at UCSC generally and BE specifically, as well as the ability to interact and problem solve directly with faculty and graduate students in various BE programs. Each BE graduate program is unique, with separate requirements and distinct tracks of study, which requires the incumbents to move seamlessly between programs while ensuring consolidated and cooperative services for all graduate students. BE faculty significantly rely on the Office of Graduate Student Affairs to independently manage support services, coordinate policy implementation, correctly interpret and apply policies and procedures, advise faculty on issues requiring direct faculty involvement, ensure graduate student welfare, manage resources, and guide the continued expansion of BE graduate programs in accordance with academic planning goals. Under the general direction of the Director of Graduate Student Affairs, the Graduate Programs Manager will serve as the primary administrative manager of all matters related to the current (and future) graduate degree programs and tracks in the Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) Department. The incumbent will manage the day-to-day operations of CSE graduate programs, including short- and long-range planning, financial management, direct supervision of up to three Graduate Student Advisors (SSA3), as well as advising graduate students enrolled in the CSE programs.
