Administrative Policy Development

Administrative policies are developed by members of the University community as well as the University’s leadership to address operational matters, compliance, university infrastructure (including IT and physical plant) and other business concerns.

Information on the Administrative Policy Committee and a flowchart detailing the general Administrative Policy development process can be found below. 


Community Comments

To increase community engagement in the University of Rhode Island Administrative Policy development process, draft Administrative Policies (both new and those up for renewal) are available for community input for a period of 12-14 days prior to their review by the Administrative Policy Committee. We welcome feedback from students, staff, and faculty across the University. Announcements regarding draft policies available for community comment are issued in RhodyToday, and members of the University community may request email notifications by contacting csbarker@uri.edu.

 No draft policies are posted for community comment at this time.
