Student Affairs Research and Assessment

In an effort to collect data on students’ perceptions of campus life programs and services, the Division of Student Affairs has implemented a student assessment and research program.  The goal of the program is to develop a comprehensive longitudinal database on student interests, needs, aspirations, attitudes and engagement in university life.  This information will be a valuable resource for learning more about our students, for identifying emerging issues on campus, and for informing the development and modification of our strategic plan in the areas of teaching and learning in and outside the classroom.  The program will use both in-house surveys and participation in two national assessment programs, the National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE) and the Cooperative Institutional Research Program (CIRP).
