Faculty accountability and faculty workload: A preliminary cost analysis of their relationship as revealed by PhD productivity
General concerns for faculty accountability are examined in the context of faculty workload and costs. Graduating a PhD student is used as the unit for analysis. The unit is compared to instructional productivity. The data came from a 10-year interval at a major graduate university. Six liberal arts departments with a 225-member faculty provide the PhD output and workload information. Work equivalents are determined from institutional and faculty self-reports. Graduating a PhD is found to be equivalent to one-third of a full workload. Implications are given for comparisons between programs within a university and between types of institutions in the larger system of higher education. Concerns also emerge for improved personnel practices with respect to faculty work assignments.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/43583/1/11162_2004_Article_BF00991561.pd
