Program Review Three-Year Process


    First Year
    • The department chair completes a self-study, answering seventy-one questions such as, "What is [another university] doing that would improve ORU's program?"
    • The Program Review department surveys four groups: 1) alumni, 2) current students, 3) faculty, and 4) employer and/or graduate faculty.
    Second Year
    • Third-party peer at another university reviews the program, asking questions or noting concerns, such as safety practices in a lab.
    • Volunteer ORU peers conduct a site review, which includes a site visit and report.
