Indiana Degrees Conferred

This dashboard provides a quantitative overview of degrees awarded to students from Indiana’s postsecondary institutions from the latest available three years.

It is completely interactive, but I suggest using the filters to investigate which institutions are conferring which degrees in our great Hoosier state. 

Methodology & Technical Stack

To build this, I moved beyond basic spreadsheets to ensure data integrity and scalability:

• Data Sourcing (IPEDS): raw institutional data from the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS), specifically focusing on the the completions tables from 2022, 2023, and 2024.

• Data Cleaning & SQL: using DB Browser for SQLite, data were cleaned and joined using SQL - over 300k rows of data with multiple lookup tables. 

• Dashboard Engineering: utilized Looker Studio
