220� 2005 CBMS Survey of Undergraduate Programs

Mathematics Questionnaire

As part of a random sample, your department has been chosen to participate in the NSF-fundedCBMS2005 National Survey of Undergraduate Mathematical Sciences. Even though it is avery complicated survey, the presidents of all U.S. mathematical sciences organizations haveendorsed it and ask for your cooperation.

We assure you that no individual departmental data, except the names of responding departments,will be released.

This survey provides data about the nation's undergraduate mathematical and statistical effort thatis available from no other source. You can see the results of a similar survey five years ago bygoing to www.ams.org/cbms where the CBMS 2000 report is available on-line.

This survey studies the undergraduate programs in universities and colleges that offer at least abachelors degree. Many of the departments in our random sample also offer higher degreesin mathematical sciences.

We have classified your department as belonging to a university or four-year college. If this is notcorrect, please contact David Lutzer, Survey Director, at 757-221-4006 or at [email protected].

If you have any questions while filling out this survey form, please call the Survey Director, DavidLutzer, at 757-221-4006 or contact him by e-mail at [email protected].

Please report on undergraduate programs in the broadly defined mathematical sciences includingapplied mathematics, statistics, operations research, and computer science that are under thedirection of your department. Do not include data for other departments or for branches orcampuses of your institution that are budgetarily separate from your own.

Please return your completed questionnaire by October 15, 2005 in the enclosed envelope to:

G1. Number of faculty in your department in fall 2005

NOTES for G1:

� In responding to questions in this section, use the same rules for distinguishing between full-

time and part-time faculty that you used in sections C, D, E, and F. Often, one easy way to

distinguish between full-time and part-time faculty is to ask whether a given faculty member

participates in the same kind of insurance and retirement programs as does your department

chair. Part-time faculty are often paid by the course and do not receive the same insurance

and retirement benefits as does the department chair.

� If your institution does not recognize tenure, please report departmental faculty who are

permanent on line G1-(a) and report all other faculty on lines G1-(c), (d), or (e) as appropriate.

(a) Number of full-time tenured faculty (not including visitors or those on leave) in fall 2005 .......

(b) Number of full-time tenure-eligible-but-not-tenured faculty (not including visitors or those on

leave) in fall 2005 ....................................................................................................................

(c) Number of tenured or tenure-eligible faculty on leave in fall 2005 ...........................................

(d) Number of post-docs in your department in fall 2005 (where a postdoctoral appointment is a

temporary position primarily intended to provide an opportunity to extend graduate training

or to further research) ..............................................................................................................

(e) Number of full-time faculty in your department in fall 2005 not included in (a), (b),( c), or (d)

and who hold visiting appointments .........................................................................................

(f) Number of full-time faculty in your department in fall 2005 who are not in (a), (b), (c), (d), or (e)

(g) Number of part-time faculty in your department in fall 2005 ....................................................

G2. What is the expected (or average) teaching assignment for the tenured and tenure-eligible faculty reported

G1-(a), (b)? (If your institution does not recognize tenure, report on those faculty who are “permanent

full-time.”)

(a) Expected classroom contact hours per week for tenured and tenure-eligible faculty in

fall 2005 ....................................................................................................................................

(b) Expected classroom contact hours per week for tenured and tenure-eligible faculty last

year in winter/spring 2005 ........................................................................................................

Mathematics Questionnaire

If you do not offer a major in a mathematical science, check here and go to H9. Otherwise go to H1.

H1. Please report the total number of your departmental majors who received their bachelors degrees from your institution between 01 July 2004 and 30 June 2005. Include joint majorsand double majors1 .................................................................................................................................................................

H2. Of the undergraduate degrees described in H1, please report the number who majored in each of thefollowing categories. Each student should be reported only once. Include all double and joint majors1 in your totals. Use “Other” category for a major in your department who does not fit into one of the earlier categories.

H3. Does your department teach any upper division Computer Science courses?

Yes............................

No..............................

H4. Can a major in your department count some upper division Computer Science course(s) from some other department toward the upper division credit hour requirement for your departmental major?

Yes............................

No..............................

H5. Does your department offer any upper division Statistics courses?

Yes............................

No..............................

H6. Can a major in your department count some upper division Statistics course(s) from some other department toward the upper division credit hour requirement for your departmental major?

Yes............................

No..............................

1 A “double major’’ is a student who completes the degree requirements of two separate majors, one in mathematics and a second in another program or department. A “joint major” is a student who completes a single major in your department that integrates courses from mathematics and some other program or department and typically requires fewer credit hours than the sum of the credit hours required by the two separate majors.

Yes............................

No..............................

I-8. During which year of their college careers are your pre-service K-8 teachers most likely to take your department’s special course for pre-service K-8 teachers? If you have two such courses, consider only the first in responding to this question. Please check just one box.

Special instructions for questions I-10, I-11, I-12, and I-13: Many institutions have different certification re-quirements for pre-service elementary teachers preparing for early grades and those preparing for later grades.However, there is no nationwide agreement on which grades are “early grades” and which are “later grades”except that grades 1 and 2 are “early” and grades 6 and above are usually considered “later grades,” andthat is how we use the terms in the next four questions.

Yes............................ If “Yes”, go to I-12.

No.............................. If “No”, go to I-11.

I-11. Given that your pre-service K-8 teacher education program does not distinguish between preparing for certification in early and later grades, how many courses are all pre-service elementary teachers required to take in your department (including general education requirements, if any)?

Now go to I-13 and put all of your answers into column (3).
