	Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education is a report classifying all accredited degree-granting colleges and universities in the United States.
		The Carnegie Classification has been prepared by the The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching (hereafter referred to as "The Carnegie Foundation") since 1973; reports were issued in that year, 1976, 1987, 1994, and 2000.
		Institutions were determined to have a special focus with concentrations of at least 80 percent of undergraduate and graduate degrees.

	International Higher Education--26/1
		In 2000, the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching published an interim revision of the classification in which the categories were reduced in number with the aim of emphasizing the teaching function in higher education.
		In Britain, stimulated by the amalgamation of the former polytechnic institutions into the university system, by the expansion of the last decades of the 20th century, and by the desire of the government to create a differentiated academic system, the government mandated quality assessments of research and teaching in all of Britain’s academic institutions.
		Carnegie is now considering a different approach to classification, focusing on what it perceives to be the main functions of higher education—especially emphasizing teaching and trying to capture the service function of academic institutions.

	About Carnegie Classifications - eLearners.com
		The Carnegie Classification data is a snapshot of U.S. higher education based on data available prior to the 2000 classification.
		It is based on the Higher Education Directory by Higher Education Publications, Inc. This Carnegie info tells you if a learning provider is a accredited by an accrediting body recognized by the U.S. Department of Education (as of the 2000 Carnegie snapshot).
		Learning Providers may not be Carnegie classified for various reasons - when they are not located in the U.S., were not accredited by a "recognized" accreditor prior to the 2000 classification, they offer professional training or continuing educational opportunities that fall outside of the scope of the higher ed.

	Classification of Community and Two-Year Colleges: ERIC Digest
		For example, an output-based schema may be most important to a high school graduate searching for an institution that will help her to transfer to a four-year college, and a system based on characteristics might be more useful to a researcher attempting to compile a national data set about part-time faculty at two-year institutions.
		Therefore, he proposes a classification scheme in which the main criterion is college size, as it is the most distinguishing characteristic of public two-year colleges.
		She found that institutional enrollment emerged as the most powerful predictor of the percentage of liberal arts courses offered at a college, whereas high instructional expenditures, auxiliary revenues, and expenditures per student were all associated with institutions that focus on occupational training and certification.

		Derived from empirical data on colleges and universities, the “Carnegie Classification” was published for use by other researchers in 1973, and subsequently updated in 1976, 1987, 1994 and 2000.
		It has been widely used in the study of higher education, both as a way to represent and control for institutional differences, and also in the design of research studies to ensure adequate representation of sampled institutions, students, or faculty.
		Unlike classifications based on secondary analysis of existing national data, the elective classifications will rely on voluntary participation by institutions, permitting analysis of attributes that are not available in the national data.

		The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching has been engaged in a fundamental reconsideration of the Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education, the framework in which institutional diversity in American higher education is commonly described.
		Instead of a single classification, the Foundation will release five new classification schemes as well as a revised version of the basic classification for use by the higher education community.
		Higher education has changed in the 35 years since the Carnegie Classification's creation, and a single classification is no longer sufficient to represent the diversity of American higher education and the many ways that institutions resemble or differ from one another.

		In the foundation’s first update since 2000, it has already changed the criteria for its long-time classification system and introduced a new system focused more on what colleges teach — and to whom — than on the highest level of degrees awarded and research capacity.
		Institutions will not be able to just state that they are committed to community engagement, but will have to provide concrete evidence.
		McCormick said that Carnegie does not have the staff to do a thorough investigation of each application’s claims, but that he believed enough detail was being sought that there would be “self selection” about which institutions would apply.

		It was increasingly clear that attempting to shoehorn all institutions of higher education into a single classification system introduced distortions, inaccuracies, and obscurities that could be avoided.
		The Carnegie Classification was developed in 1970 to support research on U.S. higher education, and that continues to be its primary purpose.
		Although other tools exist that are more tailored to their needs, the new classifications include certain features that are not found in college guides (such as the degree of correspondence between undergraduate and graduate education).
