Office of Institutional Effectiveness

The SUNY Potsdam Office of Institutional Effectiveness facilitates data collection, analysis, and reporting of institutional research to support planning, decision-making, assessment, and student success across the College in an objective manner that conveys results accurately to appropriate administrative, academic, and external constituencies. This work contributes to the College mission by ensuring that decisions are informed by evidence, and practices are evaluated for their effectiveness at achieving campus goals.

The Office of Institutional Effectiveness will achieve its mission by accomplishing the following goals:

  1. Serve as the university’s primary data source for accountability reporting to Federal and State governments, SUNY, and other various educational and commercial agencies.
  2. Provide accurate and timely research and analysis of institutional data to the campus community for the purpose of guiding institutional decisions, assessment, and support student success.
  3. Coordinate and provide guidance with the University’s use of surveys and survey software.
