Using Data to Unlock the Behavioral Patterns of Students and Their Institutions

Analytics is the 21st-century key to doing more with less. This session will explore the unique economics behind students' choices and retention/completion, as well as how our institutions allocate resources toward research and teaching. We will look at how technology, data, and analytics can be used to improve enrollment management and student retention and also show how executive decision making can be enhanced by bundling student data and rethinking how institutional subunits can perform more efficiently with data-driven coordination.

OUTCOMES: Explore the role of students as institutional customers * Investigate leveraging data to reduce costs and increase efficiency * Pinpoint technology infrastructures that support faculty teaching and student learning
