Teaching is essential for all education systems. Shifting the teaching schedule is also necessary to teachers in the university. Excellent time schedule improves the work effectively. To manage the time schedule, the student-teacher ratio is the important role. Student-teacher ratio is the number of students who attend a school or university divided by the number of teachers in the institution [1]. The purpose of this study is to decide the optimum size of teachers to teach in the university. Firstly, the required data are sought from the department of student affairs from University of Computer Studies (Sittway). Daily shift required teachers to teach are determined. They work five consecutive days and have two consecutive days off. Their five days of work can start on any day of the week and the schedule rotates. Then model the linear programming problem and solve this by using Simplex method (minimization case) or by using Excel solver.
