Resources

IR administers surveys to students and alumni, while also participating in collaborative surveys between higher education institutions for comparison and benchmarking.

The Common Data Set (CDS) initiative is a collaborative effort among data providers in the higher education community and publishers represented by the College Board, Peterson’s and U.S. News & World Report.

The goal of this collaboration is to improve the quality and accuracy of the information provided to the various surveying entities. Through the development of clear, standard data items and definitions this goal is attained.

Viewable data coming soon.

East Texas A&M participates in the National Survey of Student Engagement biennially. NSSE focuses on two key areas:

  • The amount of time and effort students put into their studies and other educationally purposeful activities.
  • How the institution uses its resources and organizes the curriculum and other learning opportunities to get students to participate in activities that research shows are linked to student learning.

Responses collected from this survey provide meaningful data which reflects the level at which student engagement improves over the course of their four-year college experience.
