II In the early 1980s, the IBHE approved the engineering revitalization program to reverse an acknowledged erosion in the quality of engineering education throughout the State. Specifically, the program was intended to add faculty and support staff to reduce student-to-faculty ratios and class sizes, establish recurring equipment funds to sustain and maintain modern instructional laboratories, and improve faculty retention by advancing the competitive standing of faculty salaries in each College of Engineering. Although that program was not fully funded, it accomplished much. However, the positive effect of engineering revitalization during those years has been eroded by the State's fiscal difficulties since 1988. Once again, the colleges are facing significant funding shortfalls and are not able to sustain the quality each has achieved after many years of investment. As a result, a program has been proposed to provide additional funding to recover the budget improvements gained throughout the engineering revitalization program. The program involves the following factors: • Implement a tuition differential of $400 at Chicago for all students enrolled in the College of Engineering over a two-year period at $200 per year beginning in FY 1993. • Implement a tuition differential of $500 at Urbana-Champaign for all students enrolled in engineering curricula over a two-year period at $250 per year beginning in FY 1993. (At the Urbana campus, engineering curricula will include all chemical engineering, agricultural engineering, bioengineering, physics, and computer science curricula.) • Increase undergraduate enrollment in the College of Engineering at Urbana-Champaign by 250 students over a four-year period beginning with the Fall 1993 (FY 1994) semester. • Continue to examine proposals to improve efficiency and achieve savings through organizational consolidations and other measures. Incremental revenue generated through this program would be directed to each of the colleges to meet the following goals: • Provide selective faculty salary enhancements to help restore competitiveness in comparison to peers. • Provide increased instructional laboratory support.
