The mission of the Office of Institutional Research (IR) is to provide timely and authoritative research relevant to the institution's academic work. IR publishes the "University Fact Book" and provides regulatory reports to state and federal government agencies and accrediting agencies. It also conducts and analyzes the results of surveys such as the National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE), the Cooperative Institutional Research Program (CIRP) Freshman Survey, and the Student Satisfaction survey. IR supports academic planning and policy with analysis of current data, historical trends, and industry benchmarks on applicants, students, faculty, departments, and institutions. The office produces regular reports on subjects including retention and graduation rates, teaching loads, tenure rates, enrollment projections, and demographics. IR also conducts customized research and support for various university offices.
