EEAC’s Degrees by Institution Evaluator is a tool for identifying colleges
and universities that have graduated the greatest numbers (or percentages)
of a specific race, ethnicity, or gender group with a specific degree
and award level (for example, those that have conferred the greatest
numbers of MBA degrees to women or minorities). It can be used for
several purposes, including to help a company develop or refine its
college and university recruitment strategy. EEAC's Degrees by Institution
Evaluator analyzes institution-specific data from the 2003-2004, 2004-2005 and 2005-2006 academic years as collected through the U.S. Department of Education's Integrated
Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS). After a specific field
of study, award level, and demographic group have been selected, the
Degrees by Institution Evaluator identifies and ranks educational institutions
in five size brackets according to their enrolled student populations:
(1) greater than 20,000; (2) between 10,000 and 20,000; (3) between
5,000 and 10,000; (4) between 1,000 and 5,000; and (5) less than 1,000.
