The tables and charts in this section pertain to
counts of active employees at Miami University.
All counts are taken from an extract of active employees
on the Banner system as of November 1 of the Fall
term (in this case, Fall 2006). This is the date used
for federal reporting to the IPEDS
system and generally represents the 'high water
mark' for employment for the academic year. Because
the IPEDS Faculty and Staff reporting is intended
to be a comprehensive look at the number and type
of employees on campus, employees are counted only
once, in their primary job.
For reporting teaching faculty, such as in the Common
Data Set (used for college ranking surveys such
as U.S.
News America's Best Colleges), we want to include
everyone who teaches, in addition to those with faculty
status. Miami had approximately 72 employees for Fall
2005 on the Oxford campus alone who had a teaching
appointment but whose primary job was not as a faculty
member.
Miami University reports data for three campuses:
the main campus in Oxford; and branch campuses in
Hamilton and Middletown. (A small number of employees
at the Dolibois Center in Luxembourg are omitted from
federal reporting and thus are not included here.)
