Analytics—whether in its application to individuals, business practices, or institutions—is helping shape that future. And yet the future of analytics in higher education is itself uncertain.

And what implications does the analytics revolution have for the profession of information technology and its relationship to business operations and executive functions in higher education?

Top 10 IT Issues, 2015: Inflection Point
EDUCAUSE Review
Change continues to characterize the EDUCAUSE Top 10 IT Issues in 2015. The pace of change seems not to be slowing but, rather, is increasing and is happening on many fronts. There is reason to believe that higher education information technology has reached an inflection point—the point at which the trends that have dominated thought leadership and have motivated early adopters are now cascading into the mainstream. This inflection point is the biggest of three themes of change characterizing…
Change continues to characterize the EDUCAUSE Top 10 IT Issues in 2015. The pace of change seems not to be slowing but, rather, is increasing and is happening on many fronts. There is reason to believe that higher education information technology has reached an inflection point—the point at which the trends that have dominated thought leadership and have motivated early adopters are now cascading into the mainstream. This inflection point is the biggest of three themes of change characterizing the 2015 EDUCAUSE Top 10 IT Issues (see Figure 1). A second dimension of change is the shifting focus of IT leaders and professionals from technical problems to business problems, along with the ensuing interdependence between the IT organization and business units. Underlying all this strategic change, the day-to-day work of the IT organization goes on. But change dominates even the day-to-day, where challenges are in some ways more complex than ever. This "new normal" is the third theme of change.

A research brief designed to help institutional leaders optimize the impact of IT in higher education. Colleges and universities are increasingly focused on helping students successfully attain their goals. With varying backgrounds, abilities, educational goals, and learning preferences, students need support tailored to their circumstances. Institutions are investing in new techniques to guide students through course selection, degree selection, and career planning. Technology can automate
and enhance these techniques and tailor them to individual student needs, providing students with personalized pathways through their higher education experience and helping advisors or faculty focus on nonroutine tasks. These programs depend on analytics, a form of decision support based on the extensive use of data, statistical and quantitative analytics, and explanatory and predictive models. Student success is one of higher education’s primary applications of analytics. -

More than 800 institutions participated this year and contributed data for an expanded set of topics, including data centers, information security, research computing, and distributed IT. Key findings, important trends, and similarities and differences across different types of institutions are highlighted.
Previously, the name of the CDS report reflected the fiscal year for which the financial data in that report were collected. The result was that the CDS Fiscal Year 2009 Summary Report, for example, was released in October 2010. Beginning this year, the report title reflects the calendar year in which the data were collected and analyzed because the CDS data extend beyond financial data. While this change results in the appearance of a skipped year, the Core Data Service runs sequentially, with no years skipped.Other authorsSee publication -
