2 courses (IWC) over one quarter = 67 % (66.6%) for the quarter (2 IWC = 67% per quarter) 1 course (IWC) over one quarter = 33 % for the quarter (1 IWC = 33% per quarter)


NOTES:

A ‘regular’ conservation 5-hour, 4-Unit course (LEC & LAB) in a given quarter = 1 course

A ‘regular’ conservation course with enrollments over 20 requiring especially large number of hours for preparation, supervision and for grading quizzes, homework and assignments = 1.5 course

A 3-hour 4-Unit course (SEM) in a given quarter = 1 course

3 hours of supervised work (laboratory instruction; mentoring of graduate students) = 0.5 course

3 hours participation in course planning and assignments, advising, course development, course revisions, teaching coordination and other duties = 0.5 course
