Illinois Board of Higher Education (IBHE) Faculty Load Study/Faculty Credit Hour Study

Brief Description:
This annual report has been discontinued by the IBHE, with the last available edition covering 2010-2011. It was derived from the annual Cost Study conducted by the IBHE. During its issuance, the Study provided a detailed analysis of faculty and administrative assignments for instructional activities, departmental research, and departmental administration for each academic discipline by level of instruction. It was designed to show how faculty efforts, as measured in staff years, were allocated to various departmental activities by showing the credit hours per staff year generated in each of the academic disciplines and providing a comparison among academic disciplines and institutions of credit hours per faculty staff year.
