FTEF is from the APDB Course
Section Report. This represents the FTEF used to teach courses in
each subject and may not match the FAD report which summarizes FTEF
by department of appointment. Therefore, the Student /Faculty Ratios
indicate the actual instructional experience in each subject area.
CAHSS = College of Arts, Humanities
& Social Sciences
CNRS = College of Natural Resources
& Sciences
CPS = College of Professional Studies
