Degree Equity Comparison is an interactive report developed for Equity and Inclusion analysts. It displays degree counts by academic year, degree level, campus unit, gender, and ethnicity, for both a selected unit and the overall campus for comparison.
Prompts

Because some recipients are awarded more than one degree, this report allows you to display either degree recipient headcounts or degrees awarded prorated for double/triple majors. You can display the data as either values or percentages. See Degrees Earned Dashboard for a description of how proration works in this dashboard.
Sample Question and Answer
