Summary: Here, we present a protocol for programing a degree-to-careers dashboard in R using Posit and Shiny. We describe steps for installing software, obtaining datasets, and munging and joining data. We then detail procedures for programing and publishing the dashboard in Shiny web application that includes a filtered data table. The resulting dashboard links academic programs with careers and income data and may be useful to inform decision-making by higher education leaders and policymakers.For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Perkins and Carrier (2023).1 : Publisher’s note: Undertaking any experimental protocol requires adherence to local institutional guidelines for laboratory safety and ethics.
