The Class Schedule dashboard in Campus Data Warehouse has been updated with new features and modified data visualizations that facilitate validation of course offerings listed in the CSUMB Catalog: Course Descriptions - California State University Monterey Bay . A new Course Typically Offered Designation field is available as a filter that can be applied to the data visualizations and has also been added to data visualizations on the Course Typically Offered page of the dashboard.  This new dashboard functionality will help colleges and academic departments provide students with accurate information to support expectation-setting and academic planning, including:  Are the “Typically Offered” designations listed for each course in our catalog reflective of the actual offering patterns Note: Typically, departments follow the catalog course Typically Offered designations but there can always be cases where there was a change in department chair and they're not aware they should...

The Course Enrollment Demographics dashboard in the Campus Data Warehouse has been updated with a new Academic Program Code filter in the Controls section at the top of the dashboard. This enhancement makes it easier to review course enrollment for Extended Education programs. To focus your results, filter the Academic Program Code to: GEXDG PCERT PEXDG UEXDG Then, use Group Breakdowns such as Academic Program and Academic Course Name to generate a list of courses with students enrolled from these academic programs. Add additional Group Breakdowns as needed to further disaggregate the enrollment data. This update was requested to support easier analysis of Extended Education course headcount and enrollment patterns.

Last School Attend fields have been added to the Course Enrollment Demographics and Grades dashboards in Campus Data Warehouse. This will facilitate understanding of questions such as:  How many of the students enrolled in my course or my departments courses come from a given high school or community college?  What was the last school attended by the students enrolled in a particular course or set of courses?  Do course outcomes (grades, DFW rates, etc.) differ by the last school attended of the students enrolled in the course(s)?  The Course Enrollment Demographics | Overview dashboard page has a new geovisualization to map the locations of the last school attended by the students enrolled in a selected course and a table lists the last school attend location and school type of the students enrolled in the selected course. A Last School Attend optional filter control has been added to the Controls section on updated dashboards, allowing users to type in a Last Sc...

The parameter issue affecting the Admissions (Pre-Census Snapshots)  has been resolved. Previously, the blue title bar at the top of the Admit Term Overview page was not updating correctly when the Current Admit Term control selection was changed, while the Prior Admit Term parameter continued to update as expected.  The title bar now updates appropriately based on the selected Current Admit Term . All other parameters used in titles and visual elements on this dashboard were also checked.

The Campus Data Warehouse has been loaded with Degrees census data for the fall of 2025 and the spring of 2026. Preliminary graduation rates are now available on the Preliminary Retention and Graduation (Non-Census) dashboard. You may now find updated census data on the following dashboards: Degrees: Degrees (Census) - Academic Years Detail Degrees (Census) - Terms Detail Time and Average Units to Degree Degrees (Census) - Composite Degree Honors Degree (Census) - Composite Multilevel Crosstab Table Academic Program Review: Academic Program Review > Degrees Preliminary Retention and Graduation (Non-Census) Graduation

Update 7/24/2026: The Group Breakdown user experience redesign is now complete across all applicable Campus Data Warehouse dashboards. The redesign was implemented across dashboards and data models supporting Admissions, Enrollment, Courses and Grades, Retention and Graduation, Degrees, Credentials, and other areas of analysis. Previous dashboard updates introduced the redesigned controls in stages as enhancements moved into production. The redesigned interaction combines the Group Breakdown category and field into a single control. This streamlined approach: Makes it faster and more efficient to discover and apply grouping fields Allows related Group Breakdowns to appear together Enables searches using either category or field names Reduces the number of controls required, particularly on Multilevel Crosstab tables Creates a simpler and more consistent experience across dashboards This solution was informed by collaboration with the Data User Advisory Group, user experience consultati...

Update 7/23/2026: With the recent addition of Academic Plan filters to the Credentials, Overviews, Executive Overview, and Academic Program Review dashboards, the Academic Plan dashboard user experience improvement project is now complete. Across applicable Campus Data Warehouse dashboards, the default fields used in visuals and on-dashboard filters are now: Academic Plan Owner (College) Degree Description Academic Plan (Major) These fields replace CSU Major Concentration fields—such as College Description, Degree Group, and Major Long Description—as the default dashboard selections. CSU Major Concentration fields remain available as Group Breakdown options on most dashboards. Concentration also remains available as an on-dashboard filter on many dashboards. The correction to Academic Plan effective-date logic resolved most discrepancies between the Academic Plan and CSU Major Concentration fields. A small number of differences may remain where source records were removed or unavaila...
