Strategy, Planning and Insight

The role of Strategy, Planning and Insight within Glasgow Caledonian University covers a range of activities related to the student journey and University performance.

Across the team, we:

  • Produce, analyse and communicate information relating to the student body, including student performance, profile and numbers
  • Work with Scottish Funding Council to agree objectives for the University's Outcomes Framework
  • Monitor progress against these objectives and Glasgow Caledonian key performance indicators
  • Monitor how GCU is perceived to perform in the sector, through analysing UK league tables
  • Conduct market research to inform programme development
  • Coordinate statutory data returns to a range of external agencies
  • Provide advice and guidance on issues such as policy and legislative developments, student data and strategic planning, to inform decision-making across the institution.

The Strategy, Planning and Insight team is happy to help with any questions you might have related to our activities. Please feel free to contact planning@gcu.ac.uk and a member of the team will get back to you as soon as possible.
