General Information

The CAES Business Office is a college-wide support unit that reports to the Dean and Director of the College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences. This office is responsible for the development of annual legislative budget requests, and the overview of business operations for the college's teaching, research and extension functions.

Management, monitoring, and reporting of state, federal, and sponsored funds are performed by this office. Included is budgeting, accounting, contracts and grants, and accountability reporting to both state and federal governments. The Human Resources division of the business office provides services in the areas of staff and faculty recruitment, employee benefits, employee relations, and EEO. The Physical Plant is responsible for the maintenance of college buildings and grounds on the Athens campus, the mail room and surplus property.
