Enrollment – Data Sources

The data presented come from Banner Student data, maintained by the Registrar, using a Brio/Hyperion query. Each enrollment is matched with the department and college currently offering the program using the Banner curriculum code, consisting of the degree college code, degree code, and major code. Obsolete and discontinued college-degree-major codes are assigned to the current department and college that would have been responsible for that program, using a table maintained by IR and Assessment.
 
Several programs are assigned to departments based on the department of the individual student’s primary advisor. In order for these to be assigned correctly, the student’s advisor must be correct (use Banner form SGAADVR to verify/correct this information), and also the advisor’s primary department must be correct (use Banner form SIAINST to verify this information – send requests for corrections to the Registrar’s office). It is important for each advisor’s primary department to be the primary academic department for the advisor, lest the students advised be assigned to an administrative or non-academic unit (e.g. avoid using the administrative unit as the primary department for faculty currently in an administrative position). The specific majors assigned according to the advisor department are:

 
• Bioinformatics & Computational Biology
• Bioregional Planning & Community Design
• Education
• Environmental Science (including the Biological, Physical and Social Science options)
• Fire Ecology & Management
• Forestry, Wildlife and Range Sciences (obsolete but still found in the historical files)
• Interdisciplinary Studies
• Natural Resources
• Neuroscience
• Water Resources
The numbers in each cell of these tables represent the number of students who were enrolled in an acceptable degree major at a particular point in time within the semester, either 10th Day or End of Semester (EOS). Each student is counted once on each row where they have one or more majors. The values are determined using the “count distinct” function. The table, FTE by College, Department and Level uses the variable, “FTE in Major,” which was calculated by dividing a student’s FTE by the number of majors he/she has. Students with multiple majors are counted once in each cell in the table as displayed. For example:
 

A student who is enrolled in two majors in different departments, e.g. History and Political Science, at the same point of time in a given semester is counted once on all rows for that semester, except for those tables showing departments, where he or she is counted once in each History and Political Science.
 

A student who is enrolled in two program levels within the same college, e.g., Undergraduate and Graduate, at the same point of time in a given semester is counted once on all rows for that semester, except for those tables showing program level, where he or she is counted once in each Undergraduate and Graduate program level.
 

A student who is enrolled in two majors in the same department, e.g. Advertising and Public Relations, at the same point of time in a given semester is counted once on all rows for that semester, except for those tables showing the majors, where he or she is counted once in each Advertising and Public Relations.
 

A student who is enrolled in two different degrees in the same department, e.g. a BS ChemE with a major in Chemical Engineering and a BS EnvS with a major in Environmental Science (and a primary advisor in the Chemical Engineering department) is counted twice in all tables regardless of the rows displayed, except for those showing the degree and/or major, where he or she is counted once on each row.
 

Because each student enrolled has only one “International/Ethnic” classification, the table, “Enrollment by International/Ethnic” provides a total head count of all students enrolled in an acceptable degree major at a particular point in time within the semester. To see what is being counted in each department, refer to the table, “Enrollment by Department, Level, Degree and Major”. In this table each of the unique degree-major combinations is listed separately.
