Establishing a Research and Evaluation Capability for the Joint Medical Education and Training Campus

The goals of the joint medical education and training campus (METC) at Fort Sam Houston, Texas, are to become a high-performing organization and seek accreditation. Models and approaches adopted by institutions with similar missions such as community colleges, corporate universities, METC's UK counterpart, and other federal agencies illustrate the need for an office of institutional research to assist METC in attaining its organizational goals.
