Publisher: Menlo Park, CA: The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching

Abstract:
First published in 1973 and subsequently updated in 1976, 1987, 1994, and 2000, the Carnegie Classification uses empirical data on institutional behavior during a specified time frame to identify groups of colleges and universities that share certain traits in common. The 2000 edition classifies 3,941 U.S. institutions of higher education according to their degree-granting activity from 1995-96 through 1997-98.
