Organizational Structure

The Division of Extension has a unique organizational structure that includes both geographical components (e.g. county, area) and programmatic components (e.g. institute, program). The organizational chart is the manifestation of the structure and is used across several behind the scenes structures (e.g. Department IDs, email lists, location codes, Person of Interest records).

Operational Areas

Operational areas are an area of focus or function in a college, school or division, department or office at UW-Madison. An operational area will generally be a subset of a college, school or division, department or office, and need not include the whole unit. Operational areas are assigned to Academic Staff and University Staff appointments (except those in TE or FTT appointments).
