MCLA’s Office of Institutional Research (IR) is responsible for leading and coordinating
a comprehensive program of external reporting, internal reporting and analysis, survey
administration, and project management to support the mission of MCLA. IR works with
our campus to facilitate informed decision-making, lead data-driven strategic planning,
and promote the use of analytics to foster institutional effectiveness.
What the office does:
- Serves as the institute’s think-tank by evaluating internal and external key performance
indicators and informing the direction of strategic initiatives.
- Collaborates with offices across campus to spearhead data collection and analysis
to address institutional priorities.
- Provides custom research and analytical decision support to the campus community.
- Collects, compiles, and reports data required by state and federal governments, regional
and specialized accreditors, and other external constituencies.
- Develop, administer, and coordinate national and campus surveys.
