Attention Applicants! The university is currently transitioning from Classification Titles to new USC Market Titles as we redesign our staff jobs structure. While we remain part of the State system, we will replace the State Classification Titles with market specific titles. You will now see Job Family, Job Function, USC Market Title and Job Level on each posting. This change does not impact the benefits we offer as a state employer nor your job search or application process. If you would like to learn more visit our Compensation Project Page.
