Institutional Research Request Form

Academic Year 2024-25
The TAMUCT Institutional Research Request Form was created by the Institutional Research & Effectiveness unit. We encourage the campus community (administrators, faculty, staff, and student leaders) to use this online form to request data and research support from IRE staff. Submitting this form allows the request to be prioritized, assigned, and monitored accordingly.

When filling out your request, please provide as much required information/specs as needed in order to properly fulfill your request. Incomplete requests will not be processed until all pertinent details are received. IRE staff will follow-up with requestors accordingly.

(NOTE: DUE TO THE HIGH VOLUME OF REQUESTS, THE IRE OFFICE ASK THAT REQUESTORS PROVIDE A MINIMUM OF 10 BUSINESS DAYS TO COMPLETE ANY REQUESTS.)
