What does this report show?
The Degree Progress Analysis Report shows a student's progress towards completing a degree.
- The Business Intelligence dashboard Degree Progress Analysis tool can be used to determine a broad number or ‘population’ that have fulfilled or unfulfilled a specific requirement based on the search criteria determined by the User.
- The units fulfilled and unfulfilled are an estimate based on search filters pulled from an audit batch process at the beginning and end of a semester and correlate to the Dashboard ‘audit’.
- The Business Intelligence dashboard Degree Progress Analysis tool is not used for official Grad Check and is not directly connected to the official ‘Titan Degree Audit’.
- Advisors are recommended in running a TDA in u.achieve for up to date requirement information if needed on reviewing a specific student.
Estimated Units Needed is the approximate number of units a student must take, to satisfy all degree requirements for the student’s declared degree program. If the student takes a course or courses that can satisfy multiple requirements, then the student can potentially complete all degree requirements with fewer units than the Estimated Units Needed. The formula used for calculating the Estimated Units Needed works for majority of the degree programs. However, there are unique/complex situations where the Estimated Units Needed calculation requires special handling or supplemental rules to be able to provide a sound estimate. The degree programs needing special handling have been identified. There may be ‘special case’ degree programs though that haven’t been recognized yet, as the list of degree requirements/sub-requirements is enormous, which can be modified at any given point in time. If it is observed that the Estimated Units Needed is not accurate, please report the issue to IT Help Desk at [email protected] or 657-278-7777.
