Office
of Institutional Research and Effectiveness
The role of the
Office of Institutional Research and Effectiveness (OIRE)
at Blinn College is to provide timely, accurate, and institutionally-relevant
data to support decision-making processes.
1) Periodic reports – These are reports that the office
provides at specified intervals, usually by semester or annually.
Such reports include term grade distribution summaries, term
enrollment summaries, and pre- and post-test analyses.
2) Ad hoc research -- OIRE members work with various departments
and offices within the college to identify areas of needed
research.
3) Survey processes – To develop, in consultation with
offices or departments, surveys to investigate specific college
functions or processes.
The
Office of Institutional Research and Effectiveness also coordinates
several state and federal reports, including those for the Southern
Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS), and the National
Center for Education Statistics’ Integrated Postsecondary
Educational Data System (IPEDS).
