II.E. Degree to which Distance Education Technology is Used for InstructionII.E.1. SynchronousNot applicable. II.E.2. OnlineNot applicable. II.F. Required Measures of Quantity for Academic Programs for the Last Five YearsII.F.1. Number of full-time equivalent students (FTES) served in general education, professional education, and service coursesNot applicable. II.F.2. Graduation efficiency indexNot applicable, based on this email sent to Lori Sheeran by Mark Lundgren (Institutional Research): “…The graduation efficiency index is something we report to the state. But we cut this out of program review too for the same reasons--most of the inefficiency occurs before students enter a major and small programs do not have enough graduates to give us reliable data…” The table below shows the number of students graduating with a BS degree in PBE. The program requires students to choose a second major in biology, anthropology, or psychology. Most students choose psychology as the companion degree.
II.F.3. Number of students with 125% or more of excess credits over the amount required in majorsNot applicable, based on this email sent to Lori Sheeran by Mark Lundgren (Institutional Research): “Initially, this measure was included in program reviews because we have to report it to the state. Most of the ‘inefficiency’ in earned credit generation occurs before students are in their majors. Thus, it is unclear what a department should conclude from a poor score on this measure or what the department could do about it. Also, only the largest departments have a sufficient number of graduates to produce a stable measure. Therefore, we decided not to use this information for departmental reviews.”II.G. Required Measures of Efficiency for Each Program for the Last Five YearsII.G.1. SFR (FTES/FTEF) disaggregate data
II.G.2. Average class size, disaggregate upper and lower division and graduate coursesIntroduction to Primate Husbandry (PRIM 220) is the only lower division class offered in the PBE program. The other courses in the table below are upper division ones that primarily serve PBE students (see list of courses provided in II.B.1. above). The program does not currently offer graduate courses. The average class size for the seven upper division courses is 16.5 students; the average class size for the single lower division course is 16 students. Please note that all the courses in the table below are offered just once per year. Introduction to Primate Husbandry (PRIM 220) and Laboratory Work in Primatology (PRIM 320) provide hands-on experience in primate husbandry and/or in conducting research, and both take place at The Chimpanzee and Human Communication Institute. Class size for PRIM 320 is intentionally kept small to facilitate students’ development of faculty-mentored projects.
