AICUP RESEARCH CENTER

Enlightened public policy and institutional planning requires research and information sharing, and this is the mission of the Association's Research Center. Established in 1991, the Research Center serves as a clearinghouse for data and a resource for information and assistance to the member institutions. Studies conducted by our research team address emerging issues in higher education and/or highlight the performance and contributions of Pennsylvania's private colleges and universities. For more information on the Research Center and its activities click here.
