To continue to align state university degree programs with the economic development and workforce needs of the state, the Florida Board of Governors has identified several Areas of Programmatic Strategic Emphasis. These targeted degree areas include:

Click here to see a list of UWF degree programs which have been identified as serving these areas of emphasis.

Student credit hours are calculated by multiplying course enrollment by course credit hours. The numbers included in this table represent the student credit hours generated from courses offered by the department in the Fall and Spring semesters. In CICS, this is determined using the DPT1 and/or DPT2 field listed on the course section (see RCSO).

The weighted student credit hour totals displayed in the table are calculated using the following weighting factors:

Lower Divisionx1.0
Upper Divisionx1.2
Graduatex1.6

For more detail on the numbers displayed in this table, see the Academic Affairs Budget Office website. Student credit hour reports are in the Financial Information section under Student Credit Hours Per Semester.

Please note that the table does not include student credit hours generated from student exchange courses (those with a location code of "IE" or "NE") while the student credit hour reports on the website include these hours. For some departments this will cause a small discrepancy between the two sources. You may click on any row in the student credit hour reports on the website to see a complete breakdown of each course included in the total. The location code for each course is displayed in that breakdown.

Tenured Faculty Tenure Earning Faculty Non-Tenure Earning Faculty
 
* Line detail is not available for Fall 2009

Departmental growth capacity represents a department's ability to support more students by offering more courses or raising course enrollment. The growth capacity rank identifies the departments with the greatest need of more faculty lines to support its current student credit hour load. This ranking is determined by dividing the department's weighted fall/spring student credit hours by the number of regular line-item instructional faculty in the department at the start of that academic year. These numbers are displayed in the Student Credit Hours table and the # of FTE Faculty by Tenure Status table, respectively. Departments with lower rank values have less capacity for growth based on this calculation than those with higher rank values.

The complete growth capacity ranking of all academic departments is available for each year displayed in the table. To see the complete ranking, click on the academic year in the heading of the table.

The instructor types used for the Average Class Size table and the Percent of student credit hours taught by instructor type table do not correspond directly to the instructor type listed on the instructor's record on the course offering in CICS (see RIND and/or RCSO). The instructor type listed in CICS is referred to as the reported instructor type and the instructor type used for the tables is referred to as the effective instructor type. The effective instructor type is calculated as follows:

If the reported instructor type is:

The low enrollment courses table displays the number of courses at the undergraduate and graduate level which have enrollment beneath the standard benchmark value for that level. The standard benchmark value is 20 students for undergraduate courses and 15 students for graduate courses. The following rules apply to both the count and the percentage of low enrollment courses:

  Faculty Line Search Request Template -- 2013 - 2014 Faculty Searches Help

Department Name: Exercise Science and Community Health

  1. Describe how this faculty line will advance UWF's legislative and strategic priorities in the applicable categories:
    • Economic Development/Workforce Demand

      REQUEST #3: Athletic Training - Instructor - non-tenure track

      There is a national, state, and regional increased demand for athletic
      trainers in sport settings.

    • Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM)

    • Accreditation Requirements

    • Niche programs with growth potential

      REQUEST #3: Athletic Training - Instructor - non-tenure track

      The Athletic Training program has grown substantially over the last
      several years due in part to increased demand in the workforce and
      student demand. With pre-admission and admitted students combined, the
      program is approaching 120 (116 students on IR report generated January
      4, 2013 for fall 2012 enrolled students) students at this time (NOTE:
      The statistics in the graphs on this template differ from UWF
      Institutional research when we requested data). Further, courses
      offered in the Athletic Training Program are integral parts of the
      curriculum for other majors such as Exercise Science, Sport Management,
      Community Health Education, Physical Education, and Physical Education
      Teacher Education.

  2. Any additional information to further explain the request such as comments on evidence of quality, general education requirements, significant pressure points, Emerald Coast offerings, online courses, etc:

    REQUEST #3: Athletic Training - Instructor - non-tenure track

    Courses offered in the Athletic Training Program are integral parts of
    the curriculum for other programs and specializations such as Exercise
    Science, Sport Management, Community Health Education, Physical
    Education, and Physical Education Teacher Education. Because of the
    demand of Athletic Training courses, nearly 1/2 of the courses and
    sections are taught by graduate assistants and adjuncts.

  3. If this request is for a tenure-earning position, explain why a tenure-earning position is needed:

    REQUEST #3: Athletic Training - Instructor - non-tenure track

    Not Requesting a tenure-track position for this line

  4. a. General Description of Workload Assignment:

    REQUEST #3: Athletic Training - Instructor - non-tenure track

    The instructor will be expected to teach 12-hours for fall and spring
    semesters.

    Specific Courses this individual might teach include the following:

    FALL: PET 3330 - Functional Kinesiology for HLES majors
    PET 3330 - Functional Kinesiology for AT majors
    PET 4623 - Rehabilitation Techniques for HLES majors
    PET 4623 - Rehabilitation Techniques for AT majors

    SPRING: PET 4632 - Therapeutic Modality for HLES majors
    PET 4632 - Therapeutic Modality for AT majors
    PET 4632L - FOUR LABS for Therapeutic Modalities
    PET 4605 - General Medical Conditions



    b. Explain how the workload/courses are currently being covered by the department:

    REQUEST #3: Athletic Training - Instructor - non-tenure track

    Currently these courses are being taught by either adjunct faculty or
    current faculty overloads
