The University Assessment Committee
Purpose: The University Assessment Committee
was established by President Hitt in 1996 to support a process
of continual self-evaluation and improvement at the University
of Central Florida. The primary purpose of the UAC is to oversee
and assist academic and administrative units in conducting
ongoing assessment to improve student-learning, student development,
and university services and operations.
The University Assessment Committee provides assessment leadership
for more than 330 academic programs and administrative units
across the university. Each UAC member chairs a divisional
review committee for an academic, administrative, or other
designated unit in the university. Each college and primary
university division is represented, as is the general education
program.
The UAC has the following charge:
- define and implement university institutional effectiveness
(IE) assessment policy and procedures;
- oversee and review the quality of the divisional review
committees' reviews of program and unit assessment results
reports and plans;
- provide an annual report to the president documenting
strengths and weaknesses of the university's overall effort
in assessment and institutional effectiveness;
- provide feedback to OEAS regarding the development and
improvement of the university assessment Web application.
