UW Profiles Release: Updates to Size of Academic Units and Type of Students Served

December 3, 2019

Based on user feedback, the UW Profiles team released updates to the Size of Academic Units and Type of Student Served dashboard.

Change Summary:

  • Undergraduate Major Status Filter: 
    • A new “Undergraduate Major Status” filter was added to allow users to filter Undergraduate students by Declared Major and Pre-Major.
    • This filter allows you to answer new questions like: “how many students have a declared major in our college?”

  • New features:
    • Bars representing Baccalaureate data in the College and Department bar charts are separated into sections for Pre-Declared and Declared Major.
      • Hovering these sections will display a tool tip with data for both Baccalaureate and Undergraduate Major Status.

    • Undergraduate Major Status data can be viewed in the Number of Students vs. Number of Student Majors bar chart in visualization view and all 3 tables in table view by hovering “Baccalaureate” and clicking the + link.

 

  • Updated Reformatting: 
    • The dashboard was reformatted to be consistent with UW branding guidelines.
    • Clicking the “Show Cohort Filters” or “Hide Cohort Filters” buttons will expand or collapse the list of Restrict Cohort filters.
