Includes Graduate Assistants.

**

Student/faculty ratio is computed only for the School as a whole. Faculty FTE is no longer broken down by department, due to restructuring.

***

Graduate Assistants in the School of Education serve as Graduate Research Assistants. Thus, the School's student/faculty ratio is understated.

****

Graduate Assistants in the College of Urban and Public Affairs serve as Graduate Research Assistants. Student/faculty ratios in these departments are, therefore, understated.

*****

Graduate Assistants in the Systems Science Program do not teach in that program; they serve as Graduate Teaching Assistants in other University departments

or as Graduate Research Assistants in Systems Science. Student/faculty ratios in these departments are, therefore, understated.

******

Faculty FTE in University Studies is distributed among departments across the campus. Faculty FTE shown in this table is administrative.

NOTE: FTE Faculty for Dean's Offices includes positions for which funds were budgeted, but which were not allocated to a specific department at the beginning of the budget

period. These are included in the school/college totals to show the true student/faculty ratio in that school or college. Departmental student/faculty ratios may vary

during the academic year as these positions are allocated. Column totals may not sum, due to rounding.
