Question: Can the Major Minor information be moved into the Student Stats per Term?

Sarah Parnell 5 years ago updated 5 years ago 5

For departmental reporting the major / minor information is used for all the filters and needs to be used on a per term basis and combined with the Enrollment and Retention information.  The current information listed in Enrollment and Demographics is good but not enough.

All Primary/Secondary Major/Minor fields have been added to the Per Term Demographics so they can be used with all views.

Looking for Application Term Code

Natalie Noles 5 years ago 0

Looking for student's Application Term Code (or something similar) - which would represent the student's first term at their particular student level.  For example, a student admitted as an undergraduate in FA13 would have an Application Term Code of FA13 for their UG student level records.  If the same student progressed to a graduate program in FA17, they would have an application term code of FA17 for their GR student level records.  Would this be the "cohort term set" data?  Could not find definitions for cohort term set fields in IGC.

Alternatively, is this represented in 'Term Set - UCSD First Time Grad,' 'Term Set - UCSD UG Non-Transfer,' 'Term Set - UCSD UG Transfer'?

Any assistance is appreciated.

For packages such as Course Stats, Class Stats, it would be helpful to have Instruction Type included.

Natalie Noles 6 years ago 0

Also, under measures for these packages, there are many measures related to students that would be helpful in aggregate form. Such as by Class Level, by primary major, by academic level, by minor, etc.

These views might also be a good place to incorporate data elements related to scheduling.

Question: Can the Major Minor Change Date reflect the actual date of the change?

Currently the Change Date reflects the start of the term in SAH-MajorMinorDetail-View.  Can this field be updated to display the actual date of the change?

Can the Divsion / Department hierarchy from the Academic Affairs page be added to SAH?

Sarah Parnell 5 years ago updated by Karen Gerstoft 5 years ago 3

https://academicaffairs.ucsd.edu/Modules/Organization/Reports/UnitDetails.aspx


Different groups around campus use this hierarchy to organize their data b/c ISIS can't be updated and it doesn't match the current business hierarchy.

New Data: Add Community College(s) Attended data

Laurel Welton 5 years ago 0

High School of Graduation is currently available in SAH. However, I can't find data on Community Colleges attended, which is highly relevant for Transfer students. I have received a request from the Dean of Social Sciences (after a meeting on Time-to-Degree with the EVC) on determining which community colleges our transfer students are coming from, so that we can attempt to address articulation agreements. Other uses for this data may include targeted outreach for recruitment efforts.

Outline of Student Data Elements

Natalie Noles 6 years ago updated by Sarah Parnell 5 years ago 4

In an effort to promote efficiency, end-user friendliness, and better QA testing, renewing request for structure of student data packages to more closely mirror the outline structure of ISIS, and/or those in the Provost IT data package.  (please see attached for screenshots UE structure request.pdf)

Answer
Sarah Parnell 5 years ago

We've discussed a package reorganization based on ISIS with the SAH Steering Committee and decided that since ISIS will be replaced by a new Student Information System (SIS) in the next couple years it would be prudent to focus on grouping fields by topic instead of ISIS screen.

We did reorganize the PerTerm Demographic fields into Term Based Measures, Current Cumulative Measures and Term Cumulative Measures and moved Student Count into its own folder so it is easier to find.

Question: Can STU PID be renamed to something else?

Sarah Parnell 6 years ago updated 5 years ago 26

BIA has gotten feedback on why the Student PID is called STU PID.  As analysts, does anyone know why this is called STU PID?  Is there a better name for this field?
