Use Your Academic Program Data to Power Your Long-Term Strategies
Higher education leaders face consistent pressure to address changing student demographics, drive efficiencies and identify new programs to grow and maintain enrollment. These challenges are leading colleges and universities to review their academic portfolios, streamline operations and redesign economic models and forecasting methods. Due to resource and technology constraints, however, many leaders aren’t using their school’s data to guide their decisions and long-term strategies. You need a better solution to help with these critical decisions and discussions. You need BKD Financial Sustainability Services.
Our solutions include Program Economic Analysis, an affordable solution that helps institutions evaluate the demand and financial performance of their academic programs, as well as Academic Portfolio Review, a review of all your current and potential new programs, allowing you to decide which programs to start, stop, sustain or grow.
