OIRE Accomplishments FY26

OIRE is led by the Associate Provost for Institutional Research and Effectiveness and includes professionals dedicated to institutional research, assessment, accreditation, and data analytics. Together, the team partners across the university to ensure data are accessible, analysis is actionable, and improvement efforts are aligned with institutional priorities.

During the Fall 2024 semester, UIS began a holistic academic portfolio review (APR). An Academic Portfolio Review Task Force (APRTF) was formed and received a charge from Provost Schwab to develop recommendations for conducting the APR. The APRTF meet weekly from November 2024 through January 2025 and delivered their Recommendations for a Comprehensive Portfolio Review of Academic Programs at the University of Illinois Springfield to the provost on February 3, 2025.

No matter how long you’ve been at UIS, our many acronyms are enough to make you see STARS.

In an effort to reduce survey fatigue the Office of Institutional Research & Effectiveness works with other units on campus to plan, organize, and monitor surveys involving the UIS students, faculty, staff, and alumni populations. Individuals interested in administering a survey to a significant portion of the UIS community (≥10% of the target population) are asked to complete the Campus Survey Administration Request form.

The Office of Institutional Research & Effectiveness partners with the UIS community on strategic initiatives and projects.
