Abstract: The "2025 Factual Look at Higher Education in Nebraska" summarizes information from the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS) survey forms. The annual report consists of two parts--Degrees and Other Awards Conferred, and Enrollment--and each part is approved and disseminated as it is completed. Sections one through five summarize the number of degrees and awards reported through IPEDS surveys of Nebraska's public and nonpublic colleges and universities. The 10-year trends presented are based on the Fall 2014 through Fall 2024 IPEDS Completion surveys of Nebraska's public and nonpublic colleges. Through these surveys, Nebraska institutions reported the number of degrees, certificates, and diplomas awarded from 2013-14 through 2023-24. In this report, the number of degrees and other awards conferred is analyzed by: (1) sector and institution; (2) award level; (3) sex; (4) race/ethnicity; and (5) discipline cluster. In addition, the number of completers by age is summarized in section six of this report. Throughout this report, the total number of degrees and other awards is analyzed by four sectors of higher education in Nebraska. As defined in the Coordinating Commission's "Comprehensive Statewide Plan for Postsecondary Education," the three public sectors of higher education in Nebraska are the University of Nebraska, Nebraska State College System, and Nebraska Community Colleges. In addition to the public colleges and universities, private not-for-profit, private for-profit, out-of-state public, and federally-funded tribal colleges submit data to IPEDS and are categorized as Nonpublic Colleges and Universities.
