Budget Update Presentation, May 10, 2017
The proposed plan would also streamline upper administration by reducing the number of direct reports to the chancellor from eight positions to six. It would also reduce the number of direct reports to the provost and executive vice chancellor for academic affairs from 11 positions to nine. This proposed streamlining is part of a broader reorganization that is outlined in the draft organizational chart:

Also as part of the proposed organizational restructuring and in response to University of Missouri System President Mun Choi’s request to focus on programs of excellence on every campus, Missouri S&T will begin a process to review academic and administrative programs. Known as “program prioritization,” this process will enable campus leaders to focus on programs that meet high standards of excellence. More information about the proposed program prioritization is also available in the presentation linked above. Prioritization form drafts are also available for download:
