Process of Updating CIP

• STAGE 1- Background Research• Reviewed last three years of IPEDS Completions Data • Looked at responses from IPEDS keyholders on the completions survey for

programs which were classified as “other”• For all 2 digit series, and select 4 digit series, looked at course catalogs for

the 10 institutions that produced the most completions for a series• Mapped their course catalogs onto the CIP and looked for possible new

programs• Reviewed other data sets, such as the College Board’s Annual Survey of

Colleges, NSF’s Survey of Earned Doctorates

2

STAGE 2

• Soliciting input• NCES conducted an on-line survey of IPEDS keyholders• Survey asked keyholders to submit suggestions for new

instructional programs and provide a brief justification for why the program should be added

• Solicited suggestions for new instructional programs from federal statistical agencies that use the CIP, such as NSF, NIH, NASA, Department of Agriculture, Department of Education, Statistics Canada

3

STAGE 3

• Evaluating Suggestions• Reviewed each of the suggestions for a new code

to make sure it did not already exist• Researched each of the suggestions• To be considered as a new code it had to meet

one of the three criteria: Exist in 10 postsecondary institutions If did not exist in 10 postsecondary institutions, show evidence

of it clearly being a growing, emerging field Be requested by a federal or state agency

4

STAGE 4

• CIP Technical Review Panel• Representatives from federal agencies, state agencies, and

postsecondary institutions met in Washington DC for 2 days in June 2008

• Reviewed over 300 suggestions for new CIP codes• Provided recommendations on what changes to make
