In collaboration with Faculty Affairs, Data to Insights have released new faculty analytics: the Faculty Flow Dashboard. 

Approved users can access the dashboard via the Insights Service here. 

This new analytical resource tracks cohorts of newly hired Tenure-Track Assistant Professors year-over-year, by initial primary college/school, department/unit, and demographics. The starting cohort is FY2000-01, providing up to 25 years of data in these trends. 

D2I is excited to share the release of two new dashboards available to all faculty and staff:   

• Multiple Courses: Weekly Class Schedule and Metrics
• Single Course: Details and Trends 

Each dashboard contains detailed information on selected courses offered by a college/school by semester for the latest 5 academic years, including a class-level calendar, seat utilization, room details and space usage, DFQ rates and course ratings, as well as student affiliations.  

Data to Insights (D2I) is excited to announce the release of the Faculty Teaching Activity and Faculty Salaries dashboards and updates to existing resources as part of UT’s growing Trusted Information Infrastructure.
