About University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign

What is the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign?

The University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) is the public flagship of the University of Illinois System, founded in 1867. A leading research university — especially in engineering, computing and the sciences — it is one of the largest employers in central Illinois.

Where will I work?

UIUC staff work from the University's campus in Urbana and Champaign, Illinois. Compressed and hybrid work arrangements are available to staff through the University's Workplace Flexibility policy.

What is the team like?

Around 11,000 staff across academic departments, research, libraries, IT, finance, facilities, student services and administration.

Work-Life Balance

UIUC's Workplace Flexibility policy (Campus Administrative Manual HR-87) provides for a genuine compressed work week: "The Compressed Work Week allows a staff member to work a traditional 37.5 or 40-hour workweek in less than the traditional number of workdays." The policy gives the example that "a full-time employee scheduled for 40 hours per week could work four 10-hour days instead of five 8-hour days." It is a year-round option.

Perks and Benefits

  • Compressed work week — a 37.5–40 hour week worked in fewer days, e.g. four 10-hour days (year-round flexible-work option).
  • Hybrid and remote options through the Workplace Flexibility policy.
  • State Universities Retirement System pension.
  • Comprehensive health, dental and vision coverage.
  • Generous paid time off and university holidays.
  • Tuition benefits for staff and their families.
