Second Major Associated with Degrees Awarded Report

This article covers how to run and interpret the Second Major Associated with Degrees Awarded report on the Degrees dashboard.

What does this report show?

The Second Major Associated with Degrees Awarded report shows charts and tables for all second majors associated with the degrees awarded for the term(s) selected. The charts provide a visual representation of the data. The tables show the number of second majors associated with 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.

Note: when an individual student had a double major, only their second major will show in this report; information on their first major will appear on the Degrees Awarded By Major 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.
