Methodology
Eduventures brings together the range of metrics previously outlined to judge program performance and prospects. Each program is scored on a number of external and internal metrics. The external metrics are based on regional and national program “health” and the corresponding labor market. The internal metrics are based on program performance supplied by your institution, where available. Both the internal and external metrics are converted into 10-point scores, for each program. The 10-point scores are based on the relative performance of a program against the other programs at your institution.
