The Statistical Handbookis designed to provide University administrators and faculty with accurate and consistent information about UT Austin's student, faculty, staff, and financial characteristics. In many cases the information is disaggregated to program or department levels to facilitate use in policy making at these levels. Data for up to ten years are included where possible so that significant trends can be identified.

There have been a few revisions to this year's Handbook.Revisions include the following:

Changes to Programs include:
Creation of a Bachelor of Arts degree with a major in Jewish Studies.
Creation of a Bachelor of Arts degree with a major in Religious Studies.
