DAPIR has Data Resources for Program Review's Self-Study 
DAPIR supports each program's faculty with their academic program review, a 5-step process to assess the program's quality and effectiveness, evaluate strengths, and determine the next steps to identify areas for continuous improvement or strategic development.    
  1. Initiation of program review
  2. Self-Study Report
  3. Review Committee
  4. School/college discussion and dean’s final summary
  5. Completion of the review

Step 2, self-study report, requires a combination of qualitative and quantitative analysis. Programs should use official reporting when available to ensure consistent evaluation across the institution. If you don’t see something in the available data sources and are wondering if they are possible, contact us–we can help.

  • Enrollment Trends and Topics 
  • Grades and Grading Patterns
