Project Objectives

The committee will evaluate the Chicagoland marketplace for undergraduate summer term offerings. That analysis will include:
- Historic trends in the number and type of courses offered at UIC
- Historic enrollments for summer sessions by term
- Historic information about the availability of summer financial aid and the impact of that availability (or lack thereof) may have had on summer term attendance.
- The proliferation of other methods of summer term delivery (e.g. online).
- Additional data-points as identified by the committee.
Obtain baseline data to validate or refute the assumptions listed in the rationale above.
Develop a series of data-driven strategic alternatives for campus consideration. Any suggested alternative must be financially viable within the current (and anticipated) economic environment facing the campus.
