editThe Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education (Q4223026) classifies United States institutions of higher education. Each institution has between zero and six classifications. Most institutions have more than one classification at a time. About every five years, the classification agency updates the schema and classifications, so point in time (P585) will be a useful qualifier to note which schema year applies. Only institutions of higher education that have Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System ID (P1771) will have Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education (P2643). The mapping between IPEDS ID and Carnegie Classifications is freely available from Carnegie themselves, and after a year or so is available through Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (Q6042926) datasets.

2018 classifications update
editNotified participants of WikiProject Universities

Per http://carnegieclassifications.iu.edu there is an updated set of definitions and institution classifications for 2018, with a further update expected in 2021. We should consider whether to rename this property as the 2015 edition only and propose a new property, or mark older classifications as deprecated but keep them, or something else.

- Do you have an idea of what fraction are changed? ArthurPSmith (talk) 17:37, 13 March 2019 (UTC)
- It looks like the Basic Classification was the only classification where some labels were changed, and that was only among the 3 doctoral levels. Among those 3 doctoral classifications, the labels were renamed and redefined, so that we cannot expect a 1-to-1 correspondence from the 2015 labels to the 2018 labels. In 2015, there were:
- 115 Doctoral Universities: Highest Research Activity
- 107 Doctoral Universities: Higher Research Activity
- 111 Doctoral Universities: Moderate Research Activity
- total: 333 institutions
But in 2018, there were:
- 131 Doctoral Universities: Very High Research Activity
- 135 Doctoral Universities: High Research Activity
- 152 Doctoral/Professional Universities
- total: 418 institutions
Then of the non-doctoral institutions, 1364 of 3905 (35%) changed Basic Classifications between 2015 and 2018. I don't have the datasets at the moment to compare the other classifications to see how many changed. Runner1928 (talk) 20:30, 13 March 2019 (UTC)
