Student/faculty counts and trends by gender/ethnicity. Headcounts are as of the fall census for students and faculty, respectively. Users can evaluate student/faculty diversity across three sets of filters: Common, Student, and Faculty.
- Common Filters allow for the data to be sliced by college, full-time/part-time, gender and ethnicity.
- Student Filters allow for the data to be sliced by student career, unit (of the students’ plan/major), academic level, and admit type (per the students’ first term).
- Faculty Filters allow for the data to be sliced by faculty unit, tenure status, and job name. Note that the Faculty Filters allow for drilling down on ranked professoriate faculty (assistant, associate, full) as well as academic unit chairs/directors. The “Not on Tenure Track” option includes individuals that may hold clinical/research professor titles. Instructors/VAPs/GAs are not included in this reporting.
As an example, the user can compare the ethnicity/gender of a department’s undergraduate student population (enrolled undergraduate majors) to that of the department’s tenure/tenure-track faculty by selecting the following:
Student Filters: Career = Undergraduate, Unit = department for review
Faculty Filters: Unit = department for review, Tenure Status = Tenured and On Tenure Track
As another example, if the user wanted to compare a college’s New Freshmen and New Transfer undergraduate student population (for the given time period) to that of the college’s junior faculty, the user would select the following:
Common Filters: College = college for review
Student Filters: Admit Type = New Freshmen and New Transfers
Faculty Filters: Tenure Status = On Tenure Track
Alternatively, the Faculty Filters could be set as Jobname = Assistant Professor, although the counts will be slightly less given some assistant professors will serve in a department administrative role, e.g. assistant chair.
