To fulfill its mission the University believes that university personnel; the faculty, with input from administration and students, and staff, should have the fundamental role in creating and maintaining a systematic assessment of student learning and related academic areas of programs and departments. At Wichita State University all academic departments and units within the Division of Academic Affairs are responsible for systematic assessment for their areas. The Office of Accreditation and Assessment also supports the routine assessment of student serving units and related student learning outcomes.
At Wichita State, assessment is defined as the systematic basis for making inferences about the learning and development of students. It is the process of defining, selecting, designing, collecting, analyzing, interpreting, and using information to increase students' learning and development.
