That depends. Are all the positions equal, will they all just be members of the committee or will there be a chairman, vice-chairman, secretary, treasurer, etc.?
Assuming all are equal positions, then order of selection does not matter, then
(25x24x23x22x21x20)/(6x5x4x3x2x1) = 177,100
6,375,600
53,130 ways.
Possibilities are (9 x 8)/2 times (49 x 48 x 47 x 46)/24 = 366,121,728/48 =7,627,536 different committees.
You can select 4 of the 9 teachers in any order, and for each of those selections you can select 2 of the 41 students in any order. This is two combinations → number_of_ways = ₉C₄ + ₄₁C₂ = 9!/((9-4)!4!) + 41!((41-2)!2!) = 126 + 820 = 946 different committees.
Asian countries have strong traditions of doing the best so they can get the best jobs, following from the relatively low number of positions available per capita. American students do not 'need' to do as well absolutely, only relatively. So Asian students study and work harder, and they do better as a result.

There are 10560 possible committees.
Alberta Students' Executive Council was created in 1982.
There are 84 different combinations possible for the committee of 6, taken from4 students and 5 teachers.1.- The committee with 4 students has 4C4 number of combinations of 4 students out of 4 and 5C2 number of combinations of 2 teachers out of 5 to be combined with. The product of these two give the number of different combinations possible in a committee formed by 4 students and 2 teachers.2.- The committee with 3 students has 4C3 number of combinations of 3 students out of 4 and 5C3 number of combinations of 3 teachers out of 5 to be combined with. The product of these two give the number of different combinations possible in a committee formed by 3 students and 6 teachers.3.- The committee with 2 students has 4C2 number of combinations of 2 studentsout of 4 and 5C4 number of combinations of 4 teachers out of 5 to be combined with. The product of these two give the number of different combinations possible in a committee formed by 2 students and 4 teachers.4.- The committee with 1 student has 4C1 number of combinations of 1 student out of 4 students and 5C5 number of combinations of 5 teachers out of 5 to be combined with. The product of these two give the number of different combinations possible in a committee formed by 1 student and 5 teachers.We now add up all possible combinations:4C4∙5C2 + 4C3∙5C3 + 4C2∙5C4 + 4C1∙5C5 = 1(10) + 4(10) +6(5) + 4(1) = 84There are 84 different combinations possible for the committee of 6, taken from4 students and 5 teachers.[ nCr = n!/(r!(n-r)!) ][ n! = n(n-1)(n-2)∙∙∙(3)(2)(1) ]
There are 10 different sets of teachers which can be combined with 4 different sets of students, so 40 possible committees.

For off-campus work-study positions, students should contact the Off-Campus Work-Study Coordinator.
Possibilities are (9 x 8)/2 times (49 x 48 x 47 x 46)/24 = 366,121,728/48 =7,627,536 different committees.
You can join the placement committee in college to help influence were students are placed. If you are a student this will help your voice be heard.
There are (10 x 9)/2 = 45 different possible pairs of 2 teachers. For each of these . . .There are (30 x 29)/2 = 435 different possible pairs of students.The total number of different committees that can be formed is (45 x 435) = 19,575 .
