Institutional Assessment

The assessment of institutional effectiveness at Oregon Tech is an inclusive process that involves the entire campus community. It is based on Oregon Tech's strategic mission to foster student and graduate success, by providing a hands-on, project-based learning environment that emphasizes innovation, scholarship, and applied research. As such assessment processes include the submission of programmatic assessment reports from all academic programs, the assessment of student performance on Institutional Student Learning Outcomes, evaluation of the student perspective on their learning, and coordination between academic programs and non-academic departments in the allocation of university resources that support student success. 

The ongoing and systematic nature of the Institutional Assessment process is organized by a 3-part cycle and laid out in the process linked here: Institutional Assessment draft.docx

Data sources and Results of this process are recorded and published widely in the following links which include past institutional assessment activities, the current Outcomes assessment cycle, the responsible committees for overseeing assessment processes, definitions and rubrics for Assessment of Institutional Student Learning Outcomes, and current and past institutional success indicators as reported by the department of Institutional Research and external national student perspective surveys.
