Enabling Research of Higher Education Institutions within the United States

The website for the Carnegie Classifications serves as a comprehensive database and resource for understanding and exploring the Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education. Managed by the American Council on Education, the site provides detailed information on the classification system, which categorizes higher education institutions based on their institutional characteristics, missions, and academic programs. Users can access a searchable database to find classifications for individual colleges and universities, view historical data, and explore trends in higher education. The platform is a valuable tool for researchers, policymakers, and institutional leaders seeking to analyze and compare institutions within the higher education landscape.
