Office of Institutional Research and Assessment
About Us
The mission of the Office of Institutional Research and Assessment (OIRA) is to provide official, accurate, unbiased, and useful information and analysis to support institutional planning, assessment, decision-making, and reporting obligations. We are a vital partner in campus-wide data governance and strategic data and information dissemination for daily operations, decision-making, and assessment support.
The OIRA is the leader for academic and student data analysis and interpretation for the campus. The office provides expertise in research design, methodology, and techniques in the fields of higher education. In addition, we are the primary resource for definitions of commonly and nationally used terminologies for institutional effectiveness measures.
The Office of Institutional Research and Assessment strives to disseminate useful and comprehensible information that creates insights and answers questions for various constituencies and the college community at large. We collaborate with all members of the campus community and strive to provide high quality service. The office is guided by our belief in curiosity, continuous improvement and refinement of our expertise, reliability, and efficiency.
