Welcome to the website of the Office of Institutional Effectiveness.

The Office of Institutional Effectiveness (IE) provides information about the College of Medicine for the purposes of decision-making, strategic planning, mandated reporting and program review. The office responds to the reporting needs of the College administration, the academic departments, the state and federal government, and non-governmental organizations that support institutional research in higher education.  We use a variety of procedures to collect and analyze data, and report the results, and aim to provide information that is clear, valid, reliable, and useful.

The Office of Institutional Effectiveness is responsible for reporting the official college data to internal and external parties. We are a service office. The information we provide is intended to help the College community understand its institutional makeup.
