The Office of Institutional Effectiveness and Analysis provides accurate, relevant, and timely information for use by the university community and external constituencies.

The Office of Institutional Effectiveness & Analysis (IEA) collects and analyzes data and disseminates results; provides accurate and timely data and information in support of administrative decision making, planning and policy analysis to internal and external constituencies; conducts studies on issues of significance to the FAU community, and directs university processes for determining and documenting institutional effectiveness in academic departments and academic support units.
