Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
CDE used to have its own course section but with the implementation of IBB, course “ownership” shifted from CDE to specific schools/colleges, so what was once a CDE course may now be a CALS/CEMS/CESS/CAS/CNHS/LCOM/GSB/RSENR course. That is why there are so many fewer courses than our last STARS submission.
