The SREB system for categorizing postsecondary education institutions is based upon a number of factors relevant to determining resource requirements. Differences in institutionalsize (number of degrees), role (types of degrees), breadth of program offerings (number of program areas in which degrees are granted), and comprehensiveness (distribution of degreesacross program areas) are the factors upon which institutions are classified. Other factors relevant to determining resource requirements such as cost differences among programs orexternally funded research are not taken into account in the SREB system.

CategoriesInstitutions are assigned to categories for a report yearusing the previous academic year�s data on programcompletions. To keep the statistical comparison groupsrelatively stable over time and to assure that institutionschange categories only when their measures on a crite-rion are relatively stable, institutions change categorieswhen they meet the criterion for another category for thethird consecutive year.

#Four-Year I: Institutions awarding at least 100 doc-toral degrees distributed among at least 10 CIP catego-ries (2-digit classification) with no more than 50 percentin any one category.
