Description

...

In this view you will find the list of students who were awarded degrees as well as bar charts of degrees by types and by academic plans. All visualizations are dependent on the filter selection at the top of the screen. Clicking on one or more bar(s) in the bar charts will also filter the page to include data only for the selected bar(s). Filter settings can be saved using a custom view.

...

In the top right part of the dashboard (just below the filters), the “Number of Students” displays unique number of students based on the filter selection. However, in the tables and charts, there may be more than one record per student, as some students are graduated with multiple degrees/certificates.

Due to such diversity of study at the University of Pittsburgh, when a student selects a major that combines different degree types, the student must choose which type of degree they would like to receive.  In a case when only one degree is awarded, one of the plans is indicated as “primary” using the PRIMARY_SUBPLAN_DEGREE_COUNT = 1 and the other as

...

"not primary" (PRIMARY_SUBPLAN_DEGREE_COUNT = 0).  Only the degree where PRIMARY_SUBPLAN_DEGREE_COUNT = 1 is counted towards the Degree Count (calculated field in the Student Graduation data source). This Degree Count field is used in the Degrees by Type visualization.

In the top left part of the dashboard, the “Number of Degrees” displays unique number of degree types based on the filter selection.
