The Office of Institutional Effectiveness and Research (OIER) provides the data, assessment, and planning support needed to advance the University’s mission and goals. Through comprehensive data collection, analysis, reporting, and university-wide assessment, the office helps guide strategic decision-making and foster continuous improvement. These efforts strengthen the University’s ability to deliver high-quality academic and non-academic programs, services, and activities for its students.
