                    Associate Provost for Planning

    Located in a suburb of Washington, D.C., and accessible via the
city's metro subway system, the University of Maryland at College Park
is the only public university in the Baltimore-Washington area holding
membership in the Association of American Universities.  It is a leading
comprehensive research and land-grant university dedicated to the
pursuit of excellence in teaching, research, and service to the
community, and is formally designated by state policy as the flagship
institution of the eleven-campus University of Maryland System. The
University of Maryland at College Park received over $122 million in
external research support in the 1993 fiscal year.  Its 22,000
undergraduate and 9,000 graduate students pursue studies in thirteen
liberal arts and sciences and professional colleges and schools.  AA/EOE

    The University of Maryland at College Park invites applications and
nominations for the position of Associate Provost for Planning.  This
newly-created position integrates strategic planning processes at the
institution as part of an overall reorganization of Academic Affairs.
The successful candidate, therefore, will be expected to provide both
vision and dynamic leadership appropriate to the mission of a
comprehensive research and land-grant university.  Knowledge of the
principles and practices of higher education planning, accountability,
facilities planning, institutional research, financial analysis and
budget development, including the use of automated technologies, is
required.  Extensive experience in higher education administration is
preferred, including administrative responsibility in at least two of
the broad areas mentioned above.  The Associate Provost reports to the
Vice President for Academic Affairs and Provost, is a member of his
senior staff, and operates with a large degree of delegated authority.
The position will be filled July 1, 1994, or as soon thereafter as
possible.

    The Associate Provost will contribute to the development of a
planning process aimed at systematically sharpening a strong and
effective profile for the university as it moves into the 21st century.
That process will continually identify and confirm priorities and
facilitate decisions that engage available resources productively in
support of the University's mission. Assets such as enrollment
management, capital facilities, and information technologies will be as
fully subject to the planning process as more traditional budgetary
resources.  The Associate Provost will supervise a staff of some 15-20
professionals providing data, conducting sophisticated analyses in
resource planning, budget, and institutional research.  The Associate
Provost will cooperate closely with senior university officials and
colleagues in all of the major campus units.

    The search committee expects expressions of interest to consist of
(1) a letter setting forth candidate's ideas concerning planning and
allocation processes; (2) a curriculum vitae; and (3) the names,
addresses, and telephone numbers of at least four persons who can be
contacted by the search committee in reference for the candidate.
Nominations are encouraged, and will be received at any time.  All
materials should be sent to:
        Dean Michael Nacht
        Associate Provost for Planning Search Committee
        School of Public Affairs
        2101 Van Munching Hall
        The University of Maryland at College Park
        College Park, Maryland  20742

    Please feel free to call the chair of the committee. For best
consideration, all materials should be received by April 22, 1994.
