Requests around hiring and compensation will be required in certain circumstances as outlined below:

Academic Departments and Dean’s Office administration
- Hiring/creating new positions: pre-approval required for positions paid from departmental instructional support accounts. Send relevant info to COE-HR@austin.utexas.edu. Requests will be reviewed weekly.
- Any reclass/compensation changes to positions: pre-approval not required. Submit HR transactions as usual. COE HR will ask for any clarifying information if need be.
- Pre-approval does not apply to faculty, students, and positions funded by non-departmental instructional support accounts.
