Division for Institutional Planning, Evaluation and Monitoring

Strategic Overview

The Division for Institutional Planning,Evaluation and Monitoring (DIPEM) is the hub of information-based intelligence influencing the decision-making processes of UJ. It reflects on issues and analyses data in an impartial and purposeful way to further the goals of a university that it sees as ambitious, future-focused, pragmatic and committed to providing the best possible development opportunities and education for its diversity of students.

DIPEM it consists of three units: Monitoring and Evaluation, Institutional Research and Planning and Data Governance. Work in the Division is strongly focussed on data generation, monitoring and analysis, and the provision of a wide variety of reports and submissions for different stakeholders.

During the period of the Covid-19 lockdown, as our work is largely computer-based, most of the plans will continue, although the emphasis shifts to the work that can be done remotely.
