Provided below is an NSF-approved list of 4-digit National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) Classification of Instructional Program (CIP) codes for WebAMP reporting. Subdisciplines (6-digit CIP codes) of the disciplines listed below can also be reported. Please consult the NCES CIP Code list to find the proper classification for sub-disciplines.
Example: 40.0510 Forensic Chemistry is a subdiscipline of 40.05 Chemistry; therefore, Forensic Chemistry would be reported under Physical Sciences.
Please Note: Students with multidiscipline majors should be reported under the primary STEM degree-granting department. If all majors are STEM majors, please consistently select one major only. *Do NOT enter a student in more than one discipline.
