Systemic Research, Inc. is committed to providing comprehensive educational program services for your unique needs. We are ready to assist you with each phase of your program from its inception to implementation, along with evaluation, reporting, and event planning.
Systemic Research has more than a decade of experience working with colleges and universities (especially underrepresented minority serving institutions), K-12 school systems, non-profit education agencies, and private foundations throughout the United States and Puerto Rico.
We have completed three evaluative study grants for the National Science Foundation's (NSF) kindergarten to grade 12 Systemic Initiative programs: Comprehensive Partnership for Mathematics and Science Achievement, Urban Systemic Initiative, and Rural Systemic Initiatives. The studies included more than 20 urban and rural school system site visits, during which the study teams conducted interviews and focus groups with school system staff, teachers, principals, students, representatives from partner higher education institutions, research centers and laboratories, museums and aquariums, and businesses, foundations, and parents and community organizations. The team also conducted extensive teacher surveys and classroom observations.
Systemic Research designed, developed and implemented quantitative and qualitative monitoring systems for colleges and universities involved in NSF funded programs- Models for Excellence, Historically Black Universities and Colleges Undergraduate Program and Tribal Colleges and Universities Program.

Other large scale projects include the American Indian Higher Education Consortium's American Indian Measures for Success (AIMS), and the National Genomics Research Initiative (NGRI) funded by Howard Hughes Medical Institute. For AIMS, Systemic Research developed and implemented the American Indian Measures of Success Key Indicator System, a comprehensive database which all Tribal Colleges and Universities are required to submit annually. Systemic Research designed and developed the master evaluation plan and provides overall management of the NGRI evaluation including survey instrument design, development, administration, analysis, and reporting through collaboration with other evaluators, participating institutions, faculty, NGRI leadership and HHMI staff.
For each program, Systemic Research designed, developed, and implemented evaluation frameworks and key indicator data collection instruments, published program progress indicator reports which were disseminated nation-wide, and provided technical assistance to stakeholders and institutions involved in the aforementioned programs. Systemic Research hosted numerous training workshops and conferences focusing on key indicator data management, self-evaluation capacity building, and best-practices in education. We published booklets and reports to disseminate program strategies and outcomes to funding agencies, stakeholders and the general public.
Systemic Research also works with individual K- grade 12 school districts, institutions of higher education, and non-profit organizations' educational programs and projects.
