Understand how Arts students combine your programs



Are you interested in learning how students pair programs or how those combinations change over time?

Available on Arts Tableau, our program pairing dashboards give Arts academic units a clear, data-informed view of how students are bundling their programs.

Designed to be intuitive and easy to use, the dashboards serve as a tool to support actionable insights for academic leaders. This information supports program planning, fosters collaboration between Arts units and/or other faculties within UBC, and provides additional context around student pathways and outcomes.

Access to Arts Tableau is available by request to department heads, administrators, and other eligible faculty and staff (e.g., program chairs, undergraduate directors) in the Faculty of Arts.


Available dashboards

Use the Program Pairing and Program Pairing by Name dashboards to help you:

  • Identify the most common program pairings involving your unit by faculty, department, or program name
  • Track how combinations evolve over time and spot emerging trends
  • Highlight the most popular Arts and non-Arts program combinations

To use the dashboards:

  • Use Unit Program Type and Unit Program Name filters to select the program from your unit you want to compare (e.g., all major programs in the unit)
  • Use Bundled Faculty Code, Bundled Program Type and Bundled Program Name filters to choose what you want to see paired with it (e.g., all Minor programs)
