College of Education Budget
The College of Education budget is used for fiscal management of all college operations. The budget is actually comprised of many departmental and unit budgets, all of which feed into the overall, or "primary" budget. On this page you can view the primary budget as well as the supporting budgets. There are also video tutorials that can help you understand the college budget and the issues that are involved when there is a budget cut. In addition, you can view a categorization of tuition revenue, the largest source of revenue for the College. In the future a programmatic revenue-expense section will be added to this page.
COE Budget for Fiscal Year 2010
The primary COE budget is submitted each year to the Provost and Vice-President for Finance and Planning. After the budget has been accepted, it is incorporated into the overall university budget. The budget includes the current fiscal year (FY 2010) as well as projections for the next four fiscal years.

Tuition Revenue
Tuition revenue and associated credit hours are shown here by course, along with instructor name. The revenue is summarized using programmatic units as they are coded in the university database. Note that these do not necessarily match degree program or program areas. Future additions to this page will provide more information regarding revenue and expenses for these units. Contract course revenue is not included in the university database, so course offerings and substantial revenue are missing for some programs that offer course and degree contracts. See departmental contract accounts for a revenue summary.

Program Revenue and Expense
These reports estimate academic revenue and expenses, categorized by programs and departments. Salary and fringe amounts include both regular faculty and adjunct salary and fringe. Salary savings from grants are used to adjust the expenses. Revenue categories are for tuition and contract courses. Summary statistics are the difference between revenue and expenses, as well as expenses as a percentage of revenue.

Academic Department Budgets
The four academic departments are each responsible for budgeting the sources of revenue and expenses within the department. The revenue sources in departments are reflected in expense lines in the primary COE budget. In our budget model, an allocation to a department is an expense to the College. Personnel costs for all regular employees are paid from the college budget, so department budget personnel expenditures are for additional employees (e.g. graduate assistants, adjunct instructors). Each department maintains several accounts. The major accounts are the operating budget and the instructional supplement. The operating budget is a fixed allocation to departments for day-to-day operating expenses. The allocation is based on the size of the department. The instructional supplement provides funding for adjunct faculty members and teaching assistants.
