If a department or school headcount expands, is its budget adjusted accordingly?
The Budget Office and NUIT reviews and updates the funding model each year as part of the Fiscal Year budget planning process, the results of which will result in rate recommendations to the Budget Planning Group. The annual charge for Core Services is a function of the cost of Core Services and the weighted headcounts of all departments over which these costs are allocated. Therefore, headcount increases or decreases alone will not necessarily translate into either increased or decreased charges for Core Services.
