This table presents existing and new engineering faculty positions needed for the first 4 years of program
operations. It also includes one additional faculty position in Mathematical Sciences, since that position
should be filled in the first year. The table does not include additional faculty required to handle the math,
science and GER enrollment increases in subsequent years. The number and disciplines of those faculty will
be determined by the Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, and supported by the additional GER tuition
revenue indicated on the attached tuition revenue projection spreadsheet.
