The request shall include information on faculty resources as follows:

1. (1) Give the number of persons presently on the faculty who will be most directly involved in the proposed program. List name, rank, highest degree, present course load, and estimated course load in the proposed program for each. Do present faculty meet minimal criteria for the requested program?
2. (2) Calculate the present student-faculty ratio in the subject matter field(s) or department(s) in which the proposed program will be offered. (Divide full-time equivalent students by full-time equivalent faculty.) Also give the average teacher-student ratio in the courses given by the department (planned number of students per class).
3. (3) Project the need for new faculty required for the proposed program for the next five years. If the teaching responsibilities for the proposed program will be absorbed in part or in whole by the present faculty, describe how this will be done.
4. (4) Will acquisition of new faculty for the program require an additional outlay of funds? Explain in detail.
5. (5) Describe the involvement of the faculty, present and projected, in research, extension, correspondence, and other activities related to the proposed program. Will this program decrease or increase the course load of present faculty?
