CUSTEMS Goals• Develop appropriate and effective ways to
analyze data for a wide range of institutions
• Identify patterns of and longitudinal changes in retention, migration, and attrition
• Establish a self-sustaining group of institutions who are committed to adapting their strategies for successful educational outcomes for STEM students

Data Analysis• Office of Educational Assessment at
the University of Washington --performs standardized analyses, including descriptive tables, charts, and graphs
• Office of Institutional Research at Swarthmore --performs decision tree and cluster analyses, and uses other visualization techniques; it also responds to specialized requests from participants
