Dashboard displays aggregate records of student involvement. Filters provide ability to break out records in various ways. (Display below shows Spring 2016 records of involvement in Undergraduate Research on Columbia campus)
Program providers can consider the extent to which they are engaging target populations.
Colleges / schools can consider how their students are engaged in support and/or enrichment programs.
Dataset behind the dashboard can be analyzed to determine relationships among involvement in support and enrichment programs and institutional metrics - retention rates, graduation rates, and employment outcomes.
