Personnel Trends - The tables listed below provide trend data for unitersity employees from 2000 to 2009., based on a census taken September 30 of each year. Not all faculty tables use the same data definitions, and some trends have been interrupted by definition changes.
- Employees are divided into different categories according to standard taxonomies.
- Occupational Activity (OA) Codes sort all employees according to their primary activity. The populaiton of faculty (OA=20) in 2008 was 2,132.
- The taxonomies used for national reporting -- to the Integrated Post-Secondary Education Data System (IPEDS) and the American Association of Univeristy Professors (AAUP) -- sort employees differently. The IPEDS population of fauclty in 2008 was 1,968.
- During this period, the definitions of various personnel categories have been changed by UNC-GA. In 2002, a change in OA codes caused an increase in administrators from 209 to 454 without any real change in people or functions. Also in 2002, to meet the IPEDS reporting requirements, UNC-GA expanded the definition of full-time instructional faculty to include research and extension. Career banding of SPA classifications has also moved some positions among professional, technical, and clerical.
