Institutional Effectiveness (IE) at AUP is understood as a collection of interdependent and cyclical activities, including research, assessment, and planning, with the unifying scope of driving continuous improvement in support of the University鈥檚 student-centered mission, the pillars of its 2020-2023 strategic plan, and its circular core capabilities.

Institutional Effectiveness at AUP is guided by three driving forces:

• the mission, vision, and pillars of the 2021-2023 Strategic Plan;
• the objective and resources required for continuous improvement by individual units, departments, faculty and staff;
• and the requirements of our accrediting body, the Middle States Commission on Higher Education (MSCHE).

The model below illustrates the ethos and structure of Institutional Effectiveness at the American University of Paris.
