The Purdue University Assessment and Evaluation Research Center

Mission Statement

The mission of the Purdue University Assessment and Evaluation Research Center is to serve as a catalyst for members of the university community to articulate and accomplish what they value through self-assessment and evaluation for community building, strategic transformation and continuous improvement.

Self-Assessment and Evaluation – the Five Basic Questions.

• What’s important?
• What do we want?
• What can we do?
• What are we doing?
• What are we getting?

Community Building: Discover who we are.

Strategic Transformation: Do the right things.

Continuous Improvement: Do the right things well.
