Student Authorizations Team

The Student Authorizations Team (StuAuth) is responsible for ensuring that end-user authorizations within the systems using student data are appropriately and responsibly administered. The StuAuth Team will adhere to all University policies, procedures, processes, and standards when reviewing security requests.

All authorization requests have to be reviewed and approved by the applicable Data Owner or Data Steward. A member of the StuAuth team will lead the evaluation process by doing the following:

Analyzing the request with the appropriate Data Steward(s)
Recommending new or modified BAR roles
Develop BAR role names, titles, approval groups, and required training
Implement new or improved BAR roles with approved recommendations
Monitoring the new security changes to ensure granting and removing end-user security is done automatically and properly.
