Comments on Quantitative Numbers
Information in this file is for the entire School of Communication and Journalism and the Bachelor of Communication degree (with all four majors). However, the School of CJM is seeking ACEJMC accreditation for the BC (Journalism) only. Some information has been left blank due to differences between the US and NZ systems e.g., 'in-state' and 'out-of-state' are not criteria used in NZ. Additionally, in NZ, we generally have different ethnic groups and people usually identify as more than one ethnicity, therefore, the 'other' box may be high and the numbers may not equal to the total number of faculty/students. Gender breakdown numbers consider the whole School undergraduate students. Information for faculty is for the whole school. Full-time employment after graduation figures are percentages, rather than headcounts.
