Institutional Research

The Office of Institutional Research provides the university community with accurate and timely information to support decision making and institutional effectiveness efforts. Staff also responds to requests for institutional data from state and federal agencies and others interested in the university's operations.

Specifically, institutional research plays an active role in:

  • Compiling and disseminating historical data on enrollments, degrees conferred, and retention and graduation rates
  • Conducting ad hoc studies on significant policy issues
  • Maintaining a compendium of statistics on faculty and staff
  • Managing and reporting on the teacher course evaluation process
  • Conducting and analyzing student and alumni surveys

Institutional research is also the source of much of the information provided to regional and national accreditation bodies to document how institutions fulfill the standards for accreditation.
