University of North Texas System Vice Chancellor for Administrative Services The University of North Texas System (UNT System) invites nominations, expressions of interest, and applications for the position of Vice Chancellor for Administrative Services (VCAS). The UNT System plays a major role in providing affordable, high-quality education to more than 38,000 students in undergraduate, graduate, and professional programs and increases economic activity in North Texas by nearly $2 billion annually. Since 2000, enrollment at UNT System institutions has increased by almost 30 percent, and the number of degrees awarded across all campuses has grown nearly 50 percent. By 2016, enrollment at System institutions is projected to increase to more than 49,000 students as the System strives to educate the growing and diverse population of the state and achieve the goals set forth in the State of Texas Closing the Gaps plan for higher education. With more than 1,200 total acres and multiple locations — from Denton to Fort Worth to Downtown Dallas to Southern Dallas — the UNT System serves the North Texas region and beyond, benefiting from its position in the fastest growing metropolitan region in the state and one of the fastest growing in the country. The UNT System and its component institutions have a $1 billion annual budget and employ 10,000 people throughout the North Texas area. Reporting directly to the Chancellor of the UNT System, the VCAS is responsible for guiding the UNT System’s facilities, campus master planning, and major construction activities. The VCAS represents the System Administration before the Board of Regents and the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board in all matters related to construction projects. The VCAS will oversee the provision of Human Resource services for the System Administration and performs various high level administrative special assignments for the Chancellor. In addition the position is responsible for land acquisition and mineral leases. The Office of the Vice Chancellor for Administrative Services provides professional planning and management of construction to the campuses and the System Administration for all major renovation and construction projects. These responsibilities range from initial project development through programming, design, construction and commissioning. Working closely with the administration, faculty, staff and students the System Administration’s planning and construction represents the latest in design and sustainability. The UNT System received the Excellence in Planning and Architecture Merit Award in Planning for a New Campus in 2005. Since August 2010 the UNT System completed construction projects valued at over $350,000,000. The UNT Dallas campus, UNT Health Science Center in Fort Worth and UNT flagship campus have LEED gold certified buildings awarded by the USGBC in 2011.
