............................................................................................................................................................. 152 INTRODUCTION This report presents the total number of awards, certificates, and degrees conferred by discipline in each institution in the University System of Georgia for FY 1999-2000. Institutions appear alphabetically within their sector. (See the Table of Contents for the five sectors in the University System of Georgia and the institutions in each sector.) Each institution’s report is organized numerically by CIP code (Classification of Instructional Program). Undergraduate awards and degrees include certificates of less than one year, one-year certificates, associate degrees, two-year certificates, and bachelor’s degrees. Graduate degrees and certificates include the advanced certificate, master’s degree, specialist degree, doctorate and professional degrees. Also provided is a System report of the total numbers of degrees and awards by CIP code, irrespective of institution. This System report begins on page 152. It will be helpful to note that CIP codes are more specific at the six-digit level. For example, there are many fields of study under education (CIP code 13). However, each specific education program (e.g., art education, special education) has a six-digit CIP code beginning with 13. The number of degrees and awards listed in that specific field of study are also shown. The CIP code book may be downloaded from the web at http://nces.ed.gov/pubsearch/pubsinfo.asp?pubid=91396.

  • Henry M. Huckaby Chancellor, University System of Georgia
    Henry M. Huckaby Chancellor, University System of Georgia Chancellor Henry M. Huckaby Henry “Hank” M. Huckaby was born in Spalding County, Georgia and grew up in CHapeville. His career has focused on a long record of public service to the state of Georgia in many areas of government. Huckaby’s involvement with the University System of Georgia began when he was a student. After earning an associate’s degree in Liberal Arts from Young Harris College, he pursued his education at Georgia State University, earning both a bachelor’s degree in political science and an MBA in International Business. He continued his education through additional graduate studies at the University of Georgia. During the 1960’s and 70’s, Huckaby taught at the college level, at both DeKalb College (now Georgia Perimeter College) and Emory University. He also has lectured at UGA and Young Harris College. His career in higher education and his involvement with the University System continued with service in a number of key administrative positions. Early in his career, Huckaby worked in the area of admissions at Georgia State University (1967-71) and Gordon College (1972-73). Later, he served as director of the Fiscal Research Program at Georgia State University (1995-97), director of the Carl Vinson Institute of Government at UGA (1997-2000), senior vice president of Finance and Administration at UGA (2000-06), and as special assistant to the president at UGA on a part-time basis (2006-09). In a career that goes beyond his long association with the University System, Hank Huckaby has a long history of public service to the citizens of Georgia.

  • Georgia Higher Learning and Earnings
    Georgia Higher Learning and Earnings David Evans II January 2017 Executive Summary By 2025, over 60 percent of jobs in Georgia likely will require some form of a college education, whether a certificate, associate’s degree, or bachelor’s degree.1 Expected earnings are an important factor in making the decision to pursue a certain degree or major, but these data have not previously been publicly available. With this in mind, the Georgia Higher Learning and Earnings Report presents earnings information for Georgia technical college and college/university graduates who work in Georgia after earning their degrees.2 It presents median, 25th percentile, and 75th percentile wages by degree category (certificate, bachelor’s, etc.), technical college or college/university, program of study, and whether the student graduated with the HOPE scholarship/grant for the first and fifth year after graduation. In addition, it explores award patterns by gender and race/ethnicity.3 In addition to degree type and program of study, it is important to note that many factors, such as student ability/motivation, college selectivity, and job market conditions affect earnings, so the results in this report should not be interpreted as a guarantee of employment or earnings. The report is limited to wage data on graduates who work in Georgia for employers that provide wage data to the Georgia Department of Labor, so it does not include wages earned in out-of-state jobs, as an independent contractor, or as a federal or military employee. With this in mind, the results should be seen as one piece of information that students and parents can use when making program and degree choices.
