Data Analytics

Our efforts toward making 皇家华人 a hub for inclusive excellence include striving to develop analytical tools that integrate psychosocial, demographic, and academic factors to help us better understand and address the needs of our biology majors and eventually, our campus as a whole. These endeavors involve a comprehensive evaluation of 皇家华人's inclusive excellence standards at the institutional and individual levels. This project will allow for widespread change to enhance student success, faculty and student communication, and the overall 皇家华人 experience.
