NSSE 2016 Major Field Report, Part IAbout This Report

Related-major groups with fewer than 20 respondents in a given class are not reported (columns are blank). Although 20 is a minimum requirement, keep in mind that any statistical result requires a sufficient number of respondents per group to produce a reliable estimate. Due to the disaggregation of results by student-reported major, the Major Field Report results are unweighted.

Self-reported majors (first major given if two were reported) were identified from the survey. Your institution had the option to customize how these were grouped, using up to ten related-major groups. Institutions choosing not to customize their major categories receive NSSE's ten default groups. The groups used in this report are shown on page 3.

This report is based on information from all randomly selected or census-administered students for your institution. Targeted and locally administered oversamples and other non-randomly selected students are not included.

Results are presented separately by institution-reported class level. Keep in mind that majors are student-reported. First-year students may report intended majors that have not yet been declared. Also, much of the first-year experience may take place outside of the major field. For these reasons, first-year results should be interpreted with caution.

NSSE data serve to identify institutional strengths and weaknesses in reference to selected comparison institutions, yet institution-level comparisons may not capture important variation in student engagement that can be found within key sub-populations such as major. NSSE urges institutions to "look within," calling attention to the need to examine variation in the student experience at your institution. This report provides an overview of your students' responses by groups of related majors.

Students’ self-reported majors (first major if two were reported) were assigned to a standard list of 139 majors. Institutions had the option to customize how these were grouped, using up to ten related-major groups. Institutions choosing not to customize receive NSSE’s ten default groups (or, if available, the customized groups from your last participation in the updated survey (since 2013)).

NSSE 2016 Major Field Report, Part I: Within-Institution ComparisonsEndnotes

University of Baltimore

Items that make up the Engagement Indicators include the following two-letter prefixes: CL = Collaborative Learning, DD = Discussions with Diverse Others, ET = Effective Teaching Practices, HO = Higher-Order Learning, LS = Learning Strategies, QI = Quality of Interactions, QR = Quantitative Reasoning, RI = Reflective & Integrative Learning, SE = Supportive Environment, and SF = Student-Faculty Interaction.

These are the values used to calculate means. For the majority of items, these values match the codes in the data file and codebook. For items estimating number of papers and hours per week, the values represent actual units using the midpoints of response option ranges and an estimate for unbounded options.

All results are unweighted. Major categories with fewer than 20 respondents in a given class are not reported (i.e., the column is blank). Engagement Indicators range from 0 to 60. For details on EI development and scores, visit nsse.indiana.edu/html/engagement_indicators.cfm

All results are unweighted. Major categories with fewer than 20 respondents in a given class are not reported (i.e., the column is blank). For High-Impact Practices, we report the percentage of students who responded "Done or in progress," except for service-learning which is the percentage who responded that at least "Some" courses included a community-based project. For details on HIP development and scores, visit nsse.indiana.edu/html/high_impact_practices.cfm

A measure of the amount individual scores deviate from the mean of all the scores in the distribution.

All results are unweighted. Major categories with fewer than 20 respondents in a given class are not reported (i.e., the column is blank).
