DATA 

Data is collected via the platform http://www.EDUglopedia.org. Already today, the platform collects over 2,700 courses in over 600 programs from over 380 institutions in 75 countries. Using the platform, it is also possible for the programs to update their data over the year. The annual report will provide a snapshot of the programs included in the database. 

An editorial team will evaluate the data provided by each institution, and decide whether or not a program will be included in the report. All programs that will fulfill the following criteria will be included: (a) the program is offered by an academic higher education institution, (b) the data is complete in that it provides an institutional profile, a program profile, and course descriptions.
