General Information
Campuswide Delegations of Authority (DAs) originate from the UC Office of the President, either through a Presidential delegation or a systemwide policy that grants specific authority to the Chancellor.
Once authority is delegated to the campus in this way, it may be further redelegated only within the limits of the original Presidential delegation and through this same formal process.
All Presidential delegations to the Chancellor, along with official campus redelegations, are publicly available at the Administrative Policy website.
Note: This link is to an external website (Policy Management System) where the official DAs are maintained.
To be officially issued, all campus DAs must be copied to the Campus Policy Coordinator. The Office of Compliance and Policy serves as the office of record for these delegations.
Redelegations are prepared and distributed by the delegator's office following the appropriate format outlined in PPM Section 200-60. Redelegations from the Chancellor or the Provost and Executive Vice Chancellor are drafted and distributed by the Office of Compliance and Policy.
Process for Issuing a Redelegation
- The delegator reviews the authority associated with their position to confirm any limits or restrictions on the redelegation.
- The delegator's office drafts the redelegation as described in PPM Section 200-60.
- A draft must be submitted to the Campus Policy Coordinator for review before issuance.
- The delegator signs the final version.
- The delegator's office distributes an electronic copy to the delagate, the Unit Policy Coordinator, the Campus Policy Coordinator, and any other recipient who is designated to receive a copy.*
- The Office of Compliance and Policy posts the official delegation on the Delegations of Authority page.
