Program Review

The purpose of ATSU program review is to improve student learning through academic program assessment. The internal review process provides systematic evidence of a program’s effectiveness with respect to the discipline and policy and assures consistency with the University’s mission. Broad and comprehensive program review identifies strengths as well as needs and shapes future program priorities. Program review results and recommendations guide resource allocation and decision-making at the University level.

Program review goals:

  1. Assure high-quality, professional programs are provided for students;
  2. Identify opportunities for improvement in each program;
  3. Assist program with plans to implement changes to improve student learning; and
  4. Archive programmatic changes at the University level.

All University programs undergo program review on a regular cycle. Programs undergoing regular, professional accreditation review by discipline-specific external agencies engage in a streamlined internal review process corresponding to the external accreditation schedule. Programs without discipline-specific accreditation undergo internal review on a six to eight year cycle.​ For more information, please visit the accreditation web page.
