12 Part 4: Academic Program Strategies Part A – Academic Program Array: To be financially sustainable, it is imperative that the academic program array is aligned with enrollment (not exceeding the number of undergraduate programs that undergraduate enrollments will support) and target faculty complement (based on target student/faculty ratio). These data, together with completions and section size data, are the primary metrics by which the sustainability of the program array can be evaluated, as the number and mix of students are deciding factors in the number and type of programs that can be financially supported. The academic program array workbook is a planning tool that universities are expected to use, considering data on enrollment and program completers, target faculty complement, and section size, to ascertain whether the number and mix of academic programs is financially sustainable and to inform program array decisions. University financial projections should show progress towards the associated minimum fall 2010/11 student/faculty ratio goal. Those universities whose student-to-faculty goals exceeded the System average of 19.4 may use the 2010/2011 System average (19.4) as the university goal and for use in the academic program array analysis to determine a sustainable number and mix of programs. Describe the program array key data points: 1. For number of undergraduate current academic programs that exceed the number supported based on Student Fall FTE (as calculated by the Program Array Tool), please describe the difference between these measures and any relevant considerations (e.g., integration). 2. Describe current or planned steps to further align the program array to enrollment. Include any associated timelines that are incorporated, or to be incorporated, in the projections provided.
