Staff and Faculty
(figures from TRU Human Resources office):
Annualized FTE
* Full-time equivalent of employees
1,269.0 (as of July 18, 2017)
Staff + faculty, annualized FTE
Headcount
* Number of employees
2,229.0 (as of July 12, 2017)
Staff + faculty, headcount
Students
FTE student enrollment figures are from TRU Factbook (2016-2017): https://www.tru.ca/__shared/assets/Factbook_2016-201741020.pdf
The Student Headcount Unduplicated Total figure reported above (22,336) is different from the figure in the Factbook (page 2 of 14, under 'TRU Headcount at a Glance') which is reported as 27,071. The difference, according to Matt Kennedy, from the TRU INTEGRATED PLANNING & EFFECTIVENESS office, is due to 4735 students not counting for the following reason: "Given the criteria in the section, you could exclude students who are in Continuing Education (3900), as they are not taking courses that count towards a formal award. Additionally, Apprenticeship students (835) could be excluded as they also do not receive an award from TRU (it is the Industry Training Authority that gives them their red seal, not TRU)".
27,071 - (3900+385) = 22,336
The figure for 'Full-time equivalent of students enrolled exclusively in distance education' (3,812) is slightly different from when it was first reported (3,689). This was a mistake on our part since this last figure was from 2015-2016 figures and not 2016-2017.
