What does this report show?
The Degrees Awarded By Major report shows charts and tables for all degrees awarded for the term(s) selected. The charts provide a visual representation of the data. The tables show the number of degrees awarded for each academic career and each degree type. Users can click on a degree type to get a breakdown of the degree by major.
When an individual student had a double major, only their first major will show in this report. Information on their second major will appear on the Second Major Associated with Degrees Awarded report.
Degree counts on this report reflect the number of degrees awarded, not the number of students who received degrees; a single student may have been awarded multiple degrees.
1. Access the Degrees dashboard in TitanInsights.
2. Click the Degrees Awarded by Major tab.
