Part Two:
A. Faculty Salary
The decision to whether a Faculty Director is to be paid a salary is determined by the department.
Ordinarily, to ensure the program is affordable to the students, the Faculty Directors salary is paid from
departmental or college funds. If such funds are not available, the Office of International Studies and
Programs, in agreement with department/college, will collect funds directly from the students as part of
the program costs. Those funds would then be transferred to the authorized department for payment of
the faculty directors salary.
Please complete the appropriate sections below.
1. The program directors salary will be paid from departmental or college funds.
(If no, please proceed to # 2.)
Yes
No
2. Salary for this program director is not available from department or college funds; therefore we request
that the Office of International Studies and Programs collect funds in the amount of ________________,
to be generated through student program costs. (If no salary is required, please put zero -0-)
B. Administrative Approvals
I (we) certify that the program design and academic content are satisfactory, and that the qualifications of
