Degree Program Assessment of Student Learning 

Overview

The assessment of student learning in degree programs serves a variety of purposes. A major use of the assessment of student learning at the program level is to provide information for reviewing and improving the program’s curriculum, instruction, and resource allocation.

The assessment of student learning in degree programs is supported and monitored by the Office of Academic Assessment on behalf of the University Assessment Committee (who reviews all assessment plans and reports) and the Office of the Provost. Reporting on the assessment of student learning by degree programs is required by the Arizona Board of Regents and by the Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association (NCA).

Academic units are required to submit an assessment plan for each of their degree and certificate programs (undergraduate and graduate). In addition, academic units must submit an annual report on the implementation of their degree program student learning assessment plans. Information regarding assessment plan and report submission procedures as well as the criteria used to review degree program assessment of student learning can be accessed through the links below.
