Survey 和 Data Collection
The Office of Institutional 研究 和 Effectiveness (OIRE) supports the use of data in decision-making 和 policy decisions at Harvey Mudd College. 为此目的, we collect 和 analyze data from many sources, including surveys administered to students, 父母, 校友, 教职员工. Often, we are approached by student groups or offices on campus who would like to conduct a survey. This page is intended to help those wishing to implement a survey efficiently 和 productively use their time 和 resources. 我们的 Data Collection Schedule provides information about the relationship between college-wide program level 和 Core assessment. See the survey calendar below to arrange a timeline for your collection. In general, the following provides a rough guide of the survey process:
- Authoring/updating the survey instrument 和 creating a population file
