Background

Scope and content:

The collection comprises revised and superseded documents from UCI's online "Administrative Policies and Procedures" and its predecessor, the Irvine Campus Policy and Procedures Manual. The policies and procedures concern campus administration, academics, research, facilities, and students.

Biographical / historical:

The University of California has comprehensive, systemwide policies and guidelines that address the conduct of all UC employees. Campus policies are also developed to address specific local needs. At UCI the Administrative Policies Office maintains the official record of campus administrative policy revisions and approvals.

In 1972 the Irvine Campus Policy and Procedures Manual was published to define and communicate policies and procedures specific to UCI. The Administrative Policies Office maintained the manual in a loose-leaf binder into which revised documents were inserted. Superseded documents were removed and transferred to the University Archives. In 1999 the manual was digitized and made available from the "Official University Policies & Procedures" web site. The web site reflects only the most recent version of a policy or procedure. As revisions are made, previous versions are printed and transferred to the University Archives.
