The Faculty Work Week at the University of Connecticut.
A study of the faculty work week at the University of Connecticut shows that the typical professor works 54.8 hours per week. The study, conducted between April 9 and April 29, 1976, involved 213 faculty members. This represents 18 percent of the faculty, excluding librarians, full-time extension agents, and health center faculty, and provides a statistically reliable profile of faculty work activities. The faculty members kept detailed logs of their professional activities for seven consecutive days. During this week the participants recorded time devoted to four activity categories: teaching, research, service to the institution, and service to the general public. Analysis of the logs presented the distribution of time among the four areas. (JMF)
