J. Disciplinary areas of DEGREES CONFERRED

Degrees conferred between July 1, 2007 and June 30, 2008

For each of the following discipline areas, provide the percentage of diplomas/certificates, associate, and bachelor's degrees awarded. To determine the percentage, use majors, not headcount (e.g., students with one degree but a double major will be represented twice). Calculate the percentage from your institution's IPEDS Completions by using the sum of 1 st and 2 nd majors for each CIP code as the numerator and the sum of the Grand Total by 1st Majors and the Grand Total by 2 nd major as the denominator. If you prefer, you can compute the percentages using 1 st majors only.
