Student to Payroll Faculty FTE Ratio

Graph represents the ratio of student FTEs in classes to payroll faculty FTEs (instructional workload ratio). Payroll faculty FTE is the full-time equivalent number of instructors who are available to teach classes. It consists of permanent (e.g. ladder & LSOE) and temporary faculty (e.g. unit 18, GSIs).
