ASER collects and analyzes survey data to inform and support evidence-based practice, decision making, benchmarking, and strategic planning.
Our team collaborates with administrators and faculty to evaluate University programs and services by gathering, merging, and analyzing institutional, survey, and/or focus group data. We design and conduct a wide array of periodic and ad hoc surveys to meet University assessment and planning needs. We also direct the administration of externally developed national surveys in which UMass Amherst participates, and we provide consultation and support for other campus surveys.
