The primary function of the Office of Institutional Research (IR) at Ithaca College is to provide accurate and timely information in support of the College.  Some of the activities for which we are responsible:

• The production of quantitative and qualitative analyses in support of senior level decision making and accreditation reviews
   
• The collection and analysis of institutional performance indicators in light of external benchmarks
   
• The gathering and/or coordination of data for routine compliance reporting to external agencies (e.g., New York State Education Department, Federal Government, NCAA)
   
• The gathering and/or coordination of institutional data responses to college guidance publications and other external requests
   
• The development and employment of standardized definitions for college-wide data collection and cross unit comparative analyses
