Institutional Effectiveness
The power of good data.
Advancing an equity-minded, data-informed culture of inquiry and continuous improvement.
Pillars of Institutional Research:
Assessment: Developing a systematic and systemic program of instructional and non-instructional evaluation at the institution, program, and course/activity level for continuous improvement
Strategic Planning: Developing an inclusive integrated strategic plan that supports mission fulfillment; resource alignment; and represents the voice of the students, employees, and community that we serve
Institutional Research: Mixed methods research, data literacy, human subjects research, and surveys
Effectiveness: Evaluation tools/reports, including accreditation status, that communicate institutional and programmatic efficacy
