Adding “Analytics” to our Name

Our office, originally launched in 2003 as the Office of Institutional Research, now has a new name: the Office of Institutional Research & Analytics (OIRA). Over the years, a growing number of projects have involved advanced analytical methods and interpretation. “Analytics” was added to our name to reflect our role in evaluating and critically analyzing University data to support decision-making, as well as fostering an analytics ecosystem across the institution.
