Teaching
The following table shows my teaching between 1995 and 2008
in the Department of Mathematics, Statistics, and Computer Science at UIC.
The department's standard "teaching load" (for active research faculty) was
2 courses per year for research assistant professors
and 3 courses per year for assistant/associate/full professors.
The department can reduce teaching load in various ways:
- A research grant can pay the university
to hire a lecturer to teach one of the professor's courses,
giving the professor more time to do research.
This is called a "course buyout."
- A professor can pay for additional research time:
the professor gives some salary back to the university
to hire a lecturer to teach the professor's courses.
"Educational leave" and "sabbatical"
are two different mechanisms for doing this.
