PROFILES, an informational factbook about the University of Denver - its faculty, programs,
students, facilities, and finances - has been published every year since 1981.
Profiles began as a collaborative effort between the Offices of the Vice Chancellor for Business and
Financial Affairs and the Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs. It now originates in the Office of
the Provost, but it relies on the cooperation and support of offices across the campus for its success.
PROFILES 2006-07 contains the following sections: General University, Enrollment, Financial
Aid, Credit Hours and Degrees, Faculty, Financial Data, and Miscellaneous. A brief narrative at the
beginning of each section describes the section's contents.
We strive for 100% accuracy because PROFILES is an official record of the University's activities
and serves as the source of data for external reporting as well as internal documentation and
planning. Occasionally we become aware of an error or ways to improve the integrity of previous
years' data. Each new edition of PROFILES reflects any changes we may have made during the
year; therefore, you should refer to the most recent edition not only for current but also for historical
information. If you find any apparent discrepancies in this edition, please let us know, and we will
gladly investigate and/or explain.
PROFILES is prepared by the Office of Institutional Research and Assessment. My thanks to all of
you on campus who shared the task of gathering and providing the data which served as the
foundation for this document. Your efforts ensure that PROFILES keeps getting better each year.
We hope that you will use PROFILES often and that you will continue to give us your comments
and suggestions for its improvement.

As of November 2006
Student Headcount
Total 9,229 9,521 9,808 10,326 10,791
1) The Student Full-Time Equivalent equals full-time students plus part-time students equated to full-time. The divisor of credit
hours used to equate part-time students to full-time is 12 for undergraduate and 9 for graduate and first-professional students.
2) The University assigns the following values in calculating the Faculty Full-Time Equivalent:
a) Full-Time Appointed Faculty = 1; AAUP data as of 11.1.06
b) Part-Time Appointed Faculty = 1/2;
c) Administrators with Faculty Rank, Adjunct and other Non-Appointed Part-Time Faculty = 1/4
d) Effective Fall 2003, the Graduate Teaching Assistants FTE is an actual calculated FTE provided by Graduate Studies
Office. For Fall 2003 that number was 87. For Fall 2004 that number was 90. For Fall 2005 that number was 106.
For Fall 2006 that number is 79. Prior to 2003, the FTE was calculated as 1/4 of the headcount.
3) The Student/Faculty Ratio is determined by dividing the Student FTE by the Faculty FTE.
The students and faculty in pre-collegiate programs (English Language Center and the University Based Schools) and the non-
teaching faculty in Penrose Library are excluded from this page.

The All-Urban CPI is the U.S. City Average Consumer Price Index. The HEPI is the Higher Education Price Index and is a national index. The HEPI and the CPI
are computed each June 30 to reflect price changes over the prior 12-month fiscal year, and so correspond with the preceding calendar academic year.
The 1982-83 academic year and the 1983 fiscal year are used as base years (100%) for the data.

While pursuing a comprehensive liberal arts background in the Core Curriculum, Undergraduate Studies students also begin
substantive work in their major area of interest. Once students have declared a major, they are counted in the division where
that major resides. Undergraduate Studies students who have not yet declared a major and non-degree students enrolled in
traditional undergraduate courses are counted as Other Undergraduate Studies Students in census enrollment reports. Starting
in 2002, the undergraduate students who have interdivisional majors are counted in their primary unit rather than in the
category of Interdivisional Majors.

# Enrolled 934 993 1,011 1,127 1,090 1,136
Persistence is defined as each one-year change in enrolled plus graduated students as a percentage of the original entering class.
Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS) reporting is done on first-time first-year (full-time) students based on
end-of-term census counts. Analyses of student persistence rates prepared by the Office of Institutional Research and Assessment
are based on all first-year students including part-time students at the week three census.
Entering student cohorts for Fall 2001(-2) has been reduced because of IPEDS Allowable Exclusions. Per IPEDS definitions;
students may be removed from a cohort if they left the institution for one of the following reasons: died or were totally and
permanently disabled; to serve in the armed forces; to serve with a foreign aid service of the federal government, such as the Peace
Corps; or to serve on official church missions.

Students reported as graduating in a particular year have met all degree requirements prior to the Spring (June) or Summer
(August) ceremonies.
The Graduation Rate measures only full-time, first-time degree-seeking undergraduate students.
*Fall 1998 Graduation Rates have been adjusted to reflect a change in the Fall 1998 end of term first-time first-year cohort and
the number of students graduating within six years. The cohort has been changed to 761 students, 414 students graduated within
4 years, 512 students graduated within 5 years, and 530 students graduated within 6 years.
Undergraduate and Graduate Financial Aid: A detailed look at the amount and sources of
student financial aid for 2001-02 through 2005-06
Some types of assistance include support from multiple sources (e.g. Direct Loans include state and
institutional matching funds as well as primary federal support; Graduate Assistantships include
substantial federal and private funds as well as institutional support). Categories of assistance with
multiple sources of support are summarized by major funding source only; if substantial support
comes from other sources, an explanatory footnote is included.

undergraduate and graduate students in University programs.
Degrees Awarded: A graphical and detailed view of the degrees conferred for the past 5 years.
The sections with detail by program have been changed to detail by department for greater
consistency between division/school/college reporting. Prior year data have been restated.
It is important to remember a number of things when using and interpreting the data on credit hours
attempted:
o Credit hours of students who withdraw from courses prior to the end-of-third week census
date are excluded
o Credit hours of students who take an incomplete final grade are included, as are credit hours
attempted by students who register after the third week census date
o All Summer and Interterm hours are excluded
The following tables presents data on the number of classes of varying sizes by academic unit. Lower division courses are level 1000-
1999, and upper division courses are level 2000-3999. Music lessons, independent study, research, internships and other field
experiences are excluded from the data. Cross listed courses appear as single courses in the department of the teaching faculty member.

Prior to Fall 2003, faculty who had appointments in the Clinical series were counted within the category of Lecturer. Effective Fall 2003,
those faculty will be counted according to their Clinical rank within the Professorial series ranks of Professor, Associate, or Assistant.
These numbers conform to the AAUP reporting definitions. They include full-time appointed teaching faculty (tenure, tenure track, and
term appointments), including faculty who are on sabbatical leave. Faculty on leave-without-pay are excluded; if their courses are being
covered by a full-time replacement the replacement is counted. Department chairs are included; deans are excluded. Vacant positions
are excluded. English Language Center teachers (9 in 2006-07) are excluded since that is a pre-collegiate program. Penrose Librarians
(15 in 2006-07) are excluded because they are not teaching faculty. Added to the AAUP population above, this brings the 2006-07 total
number of appointed full-time faculty to 557.

The Continuing Faculty population includes (for any given year) only those faculty members who were also here the previous
year. This excludes new hires and those who left at the end of the previous year. Where a faculty member received a promotion
in rank, he/she is reported under the former rank with the appropriate salary adjustment, so that the increases reflect the impact of
promotions.
The All Appointed Faculty population includes new hires who are not eligible for salary increases. The number of faculty per
rank varies from year to year due to incoming and departing faculty, as well as changes in rank and tenure. This gives rise to
differences between the averages of All Faculty vs. Continuing Individuals.
12 month salaries are converted to 9 month based on a conversion factor of 81.8%, as per AAUP instructions.
Prior to Fall 2003, faculty who had appointments in the Clinical series were counted within the category of Lecturer. Effective Fall 2003, those
faculty will be counted according to their Clinical rank within the Professorial series ranks of Professor, Associate, or Assistant.
