* * Reporting to the Director of Accreditation and Assessment, the Core Curriculum Assessment Manager manages the operational functions required for learning outcomes assessment, continuous improvement, and academic-effectiveness documentation for the University's core curriculum.  The position supports the Director of Accreditation and Assessment in ensuring institutional readiness for applicable state and SACSCOC expectations related to general education student learning and institutional effectiveness.

It provides operational leadership, analytical expertise, and cross-university coordination for core curriculum assessment in collaboration with Curriculum and Academic Administration (CAA), University College, and participating colleges, schools, and departments.  The Core Curriculum Assessment Manager advances a data-informed culture of academic effectiveness by supporting faculty and academic partners in learning outcomes development and alignment, assessment planning, instructional improvement, and evidence-based decision-making across the core curriculum.  

This role serves as the campus-wide operational lead for core curriculum assessment workflows and strengthens UT Austin's readiness for applicable federal, state, and SACSCOC expectations related to general education student learning and institutional effectiveness. The position supports all relevant SACSCOC Principles of Accreditation in which core curriculum learning outcomes and effectiveness are implicated; responsibilities are not restricted to any single section of the SACSCOC Principles.
