Office of Assessment for Curricular Effectiveness

Welcome to WSU’s Office of Assessment for Curricular Effectiveness (ACE). We work with program faculty and leadership to assess student learning towards the improvement of undergraduate academic programs. ACE provides learning outcomes assessment support for university-wide undergraduate education, serving all degree programs, colleges, and campuses, as well as UCORE general education. See What We Do for more information, including our mission.
