Degrees by Legal Sex, Degree-Level, and Diversity Reports
These reports show degrees conferred in the past five years. There are four reports in this workbook. Two reports show total degree counts broken down by either academic year or term. The other two include major counts which may be higher than degree counts because students can have multiple majors; these reports include additional majors. The tabs at the top of the workbook allow selection between these reports.
