About The Carnegie Classification
Since 1970, The Carnegie Classification has been a framework for recognizing and describing institutional diversity in U.S. higher education. Carnegie Classifications are derived from analysis of data on colleges and universities. The first Carnegie Classification was originally published in 1973, and updated in 1976, 1987, 1994, 2000, 2005, 2010, 2015, and 2018 to reflect changes among colleges and universities. The Carnegie Classification is not a ranking of institutions, rather a way for institutions to be grouped into categories based on similar data profiles. One of the main data points is the number of degrees granted by degree type (for example, baccalaureate, master's or doctoral). Read more about the Carnegie Classification .
