Equipment Replacement Cycle 2008-2009
As has occurred in previous years, Medical Education expects to receive an equipment allocation for 2008-09 from the Vice Chancellor's office that should meet most of the Division's needs. As part of the budget approval process for 2008-09, all requests for current equipment and software should have already been requested back in Spring 2008.
However we realize that issues sometimes arise after the budget process, and crucial items are needed to fulfill the mission of the organization during this fiscal year. Please request for these crucial items by completing an on-line request form (Equipment Replacement Request Form). A brief justification is required for each item requested.
All requests will be reviewed, prioritized and purchasing decisions will be made shortly thereafter. Please note that EdCom maintains a list of all computer hardware and strives to replace all computers when they are 3-4 years old, given adequate funding, regardless of whether or not a formal equipment request has been submitted.
Some of your equipment requests may be held until later in the fiscal year (June) so that we may be assured of adequate funding for all urgent and essential needs.
In order to determine equipment needs earlier in future fiscal years, please be prepared to provide future equipment requests during the budget development cycle for the upcoming fiscal year. I anticipate that the budget development cycle for 2009-10 will begin in January 2009. This will allow us to replace computers during the summer and purchase other items needed for instruction earlier in the year.
If you have any questions about this process, please feel free to contact me at x41394 or by email at ttroke@ucsd.edu.
Thank you.
Tana Troke,
Assistant Dean - Medical Education Administration
