Grand Canyon University! One of Arizona’s leading institutions of higher learning. Located in the Valley of Sun in the heart of Phoenix, Arizona, GCU is an institutionally accredited, private, nondenominational Christian University. 

The COE Program Manager is responsible for day-to-day operational management of the designated program area in the department/college. Program management often requires the coordination of work within the unit and/or across a number of administrative units. Although primarily a non-supervisory activity, a large and/or complex program, or one undergoing rapid growth may require that the Program Manager supervise support staff. Program Managers focus on policy implementation (they may have role in crafting policies for approval) and they perform and supervise the activities of the unit.
