University Planning

IPAR provides support for various planning efforts across campus throughout the year, including the coordination of data used to complete the University Work Plan, a MnSCU directed initiative to demonstrate WSU’s alignment with system priorities. In conjunction with University leadership, IPAR works to provide data appropriate for use in budget planning and enrollment management, including recruitment, retention, and post-graduation placement of students, to appropriate stakeholders and campus committees.

Institutional Planning, Assessment and Research frequently works in cooperation with several other offices on campus to provide data and support for university planning initiatives.

• Financial & Administrative Services
  • Budget Office 
  • Business Office 
  • Facilities Services
  • Human Resources
• Student Life & Development, including information on campus housing, financial aid, admissions, student organizations, and inclusion and diversity initiatives on campus
