Major Field Report Categories

This page documents how your NSSE 2012 Major Field Report categories were selected and what majors were included in each category. Students’ self-reported majors (first major if two were

reported) were assigned to a standard list of 85 majors. Institutions had the option to customize how these were grouped, using up to eight related-major categories. Institutions choosing not to

customize receive NSSE’s eight standard categories. The mapping of the 85 majors for your report is given below.

NSSE's CATEGORIES - Your institution did not customize your major categories.

Art, fine and applied; English (language and literature); History; Journalism; Language and literature (except English); Music; Philosophy; Speech; Theater or drama; Theology or religion; Other arts & humanities

Biology (general); Biochemistry or biophysics; Botany; Environmental science; Marine (life) science; Microbiology or bacteriology; Zoology; Other biological science

Accounting; Business administration (general); Finance; International business; Marketing; Management; Other business

Response options are listed as they appear

on the instrument.

NSSE urges institutions to "look within," calling attention to the need to examine variation

in the student experience at your institution. Your average student does not describe all

students and groups on your campus. This report provides an overview of your students'

responses by groups of related majors.

Frequency distributions are given

separately by institution-reported class

level. Of course, first-year student

majors may be unstable, and their

results should be interpreted with

caution.

Interaction

The "Overall" results

include all respondents for

your institution by class,

and may include students

whose major did not fall

into one of the categories or

who didn't indicate a major.

These results are identical

to those found in your

Institutional Report.

Self-reported majors (primary major if two were reported)

were identified from the survey. Institutions had the option

to customize how these were grouped, using up to eight

related-major categories. Institutions choosing not to

customize receive NSSE’s eight standard categories as

shown in the example below.

Frequency distributions are reported for these major

categories within your institution . Major categories with

fewer than five respondents in a given class are not

reported in frequencies (i.e., the column is blank as shown

below).

Interpreting the Frequency Distributions

The name of each variable appears in the

first column for easy reference to your

raw data file.

The items from the NSSE survey appear

in the left column in the same order and

wording as they appear on the instrument.

All major field category results displayed in

this report are unweighted. Only the overall

column percentage is weighted, as it is in your

Institutional Report .

The '%' column represents the percentage

of students who selected the particular

option in each question.

The Count column represents the

actual number of students who selected

the particular option in each question.

Items that make up the

five "Benchmarks of

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.

Weighting

All major field category results

displayed in this report are unweighted.

The benchmark scores in the overall

column are weighted, as they are in your

Institutional Report .

The mean is the arithmetic average of

the students' benchmark scores where

students answered at least 3/5ths of the

benchmark items.

The N column represents the actual

number of students who contributed to

the benchmark mean. Students who did

not respond to at least 3/5ths of each

benchmark's items are not included.

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.

NSSE 2012 Major Field Report: Part I. Within-Institution Comparisons

Interpreting the Benchmark Statistics

To focus discussions about the importance of student engagement and to guide institutional

improvement efforts, NSSE created five Benchmarks of Effective Educational Practice: Level of

Academic Challenge, Active and Collaborative Learning, Student-Faculty Interaction, Enriching

Educational Experiences, and Supportive Campus Environment.

NSSE urges institutions to "look within," calling attention to the need to

examine variation in the student experience at your institution. Your average

student does not describe all students and groups on your campus. This report

provides an overview of your students' benchmark scores by groups of related

majors and class level.

Self-reported majors (primary major if two were reported)

were identified from the survey. Institutions had the option

to customize how these were grouped, using up to eight

related-major categories. Institutions choosing not to

customize receive NSSE’s eight standard categories as

shown in the example below.

Benchmark scores are reported for these major categories

within your institution . Major categories with fewer than

twenty respondents in a given class are not reported in

benchmark statistics (i.e., the column is blank as shown

below).

Benchmark scores are given separately by

institution-reported class level. Of

course, first-year student majors may be

unstable, and their results should be

interpreted with caution.

The "Overall" results

include all respondents for

your institution by class,

and may include students

whose major did not fall

into one of the categories or

who didn't indicate a major.

These results are identical

to those found in your

Institutional Report.
