Program Reviews

The purpose of program review is to improve the quality of the departments, division and institution as a whole.

The review provides each department an opportunity to reflect, self-assess and plan for the future. The process facilitates in-depth communication between the department and senior leadership and informs future 规划 and decision-making. By stimulating department or program 规划 and encouraging department-based strategic 规划, the program review process can advance Ohio University's overall mission.

The Program Review process is paused until the Director of Strategic Planning and 评估 position is filled. For questions, please contact the Office of the Vice President for Student Affairs at studentaffairs@俄亥俄州.edu

强调

Program review in the Division of Student Affairs emphasizes:

• Involvement of all department staff to accurately portray the varied experiences of the department across all stages of organizational membership and function.
• Collaboration within and across the university community to craft a reflective self-study review, including applicable data and information.
• Conversations about the future of the department with Division leadership, emphasizing improvement, 规划, decision-making and resource allocation.

目标

Program review generates a sense of shared purpose and connection to the university mission and reinforce the need for coordinated 规划 going forward.

In doing so, the program review process intentionally involves several key stakeholders:

• 工作人员, faculty, students, and other stakeholders undergoing review. This provides an opportunity for those directly involved in the department to assess its strengths and areas for improvement.
• The involvement of the dean, assistant or associate dean of students, the vice president of student affairs, campus leadership, and administrators. This ensures that meaningful and effective follow-up for each review will occur.
• The involvement of staff or faculty from other units on campus. This promotes campus-wide understanding of the contributions of each department to the mission of the institution.
• The involvement of program reviewers from the same line of work. This offers peer review and input on strengthening the department’s purpose, reputation and future direction.
