  • 1. Change from Passive Action(supporting the evaluation of activity and

accreditation of education) to Active One( providing Evidence-Based Strategy).

  • 2. Collaboration works among nonacademic staffs and academic ones.
  • 3. Collaboration (Integration) of data collection, data analysis, data

release functions at the IR office.

  • 4. Leadership of the persons in charge of respective branches as well as

the head of IR office. Potentials and Passions of staffs of IR office.

What makes Kyushu University’s IR so effective? Return on Investment

  • 1. University administration and management are changing to be more

evidence-based.

  • 2. Research analysis is getting to be adopted in application forms(fund,

position, etc.).

  • 3. Disclosure of Pure portal, IR data and IR analysis results are

increasing visibility of researchers and Kyushu University.

  • 4. Researchers’ administration works is decreasing.
  • 5. We expect further revitalization of Kyushu University.
