This page summarises the degrees offered by Columbia University's various faculties and schools. It probably should be in table format but I'm way too tired and lazy to learn the details of Wiki table code. See also: Diplomas

Columbia has been 'accused' on occasion of being a "degree-mill". For comparison's sake, Columbia conferred over 9,000 degrees in 2006 (8,787 degrees to University units, 587 to Barnard College graduates, 231 doctorates and an unknown number of MAs to Teachers College). Harvard conferred 6,883 degrees that year, and Cornell 6,021.
