Degrees Conferred by Connecticut Institutions, 2003-04. Highlights. Report
Connecticut Department of Higher Education (NJ1)
This report examines the numbers and types of degrees and other awards conferred by Connecticut institutions of higher education in 2003-04, and compares that data with recent trends and statewide needs. These annual figures reflect the number of degrees awarded between July 1, 2003 and June 30, 2004. Disciplines are categorized according to the federal Classification of Instructional Programs. Connecticut colleges and universities awarded 33,642 degrees and certificates in 2003-04, up 3.5 percent from 2002-03. This is the third consecutive year of growth, with significant gains (greater than 2.5%) in each of those years. The cumulative increase since 2000-01 is 13 percent. Over the last decade degrees have risen 17 percent, roughly reflecting the increase in full-time equivalent (FTE) enrollment over this period. Baccalaureate degrees are the majority of degrees for the first time since 1992-93. Appended are: (1) Degrees and Certificates Granted by Colleges and Universities in Connecticut; (2) Degrees and Certificates by Level and Race/Ethnicity Connecticut Colleges and Universities; and (3) Degrees and Certificates by Level, Discipline and Gender of Recipient Discipline Connecticut Colleges and Universities. A glossary is included. (Contains 4 figures and 7 tables.) [For "Degrees Conferred by Connecticut Institutions, 2002-03. Highlights. Report," see ED531152.]
