Program Improvement

AQAD Program Review

The University's Academic Quality, Assessment and Development (AQAD) program review process requires departments to conduct a self-study based on AQAD standards (Campus Procedures for AQAD), and undergo a review by an external team. OAPA provided the Deans of the University's schools and colleges with a summary of the issues and concerns that had been outlined by each departmental review team and asked them to provide updates on what the departments had accomplished to address these issues. The AQAD-based Actions table below provides a summary of these issues/concerns and departmental actions. For the 58 departments and programs represented in this table, improvements were made in a wide range of areas; some common areas that departments addressed include faculty hiring (74%), program design (67%), and the undergraduate experience (31%).
