attribute_tamuEduPersonDepartmentName

Name of department with which the employee/affiliate is associated. If the employee or affiliate has multiple appointments, the primary position appointment department name is stored.

info

Because the adlocDeptName (Administrative Department Name) represents the department to which the employee reports, it does not associate unit heads with the unit he/she oversees. To allow unit heads to be properly associated with their unit, emplocDeptName (Employee Location Department Name) is given preference. If emplocDeptName is undefined, adlocDeptName is used.
