12 month faculty
50% teaching: usually 4 - 5 courses per year. For graduate clinical, one clinical group is equal to 10 students assigned to preceptors.
30% scholarship: teaching, research, or practice
20% service / funded practice
Teaching assignments may be altered based on workload considerations, for example:
- Submission of a grant
- Substantial grant or practice funding
- Special service, e.g., special university, community, or CON task force
- Cross campus course coordination or area coordinator
- Developing a new course
- Amount of scholarship, service, or funded practice
Note: Approximate number of students in a master’s course is 30 and a doctoral course is 15 before assigning a GA for assistance, generating a new section, or assigning additional faculty to assist.
Professional service is important to the university and community. Faculty are asked to participate in service activities at about 20% of FTE. As rank progresses from assistant, associate, to full professor, the level of service changes; for example, one progresses from a task force within the College to higher level University service and from a committee member to committee chair.
The following are examples of service activities:
Committees within the CON or University
Professional service to community groups
Service to local, regional, national, international professional organizations
Holding a leadership position in a professional organization
