Abstract - The Association for Institutional Research (AIR) was founded in the U.S. in 1966. Therefore, it has been over 50 years since institutional research (hereinafter abbreviated as IR) activities began. However, in Japan, organizational IR activities through interuniversity collaboration began in 2009. Thus, there is only collaboration project with other Japanese universities. Via this survey, it became possible to acquire numerical data about the strengths and weaknesses of our own university. The nexr step is to share the results of the IR activity promotion process and good practice of educational reform among Japanese universities. In March, 2018, in order to learn about the IR activities of the U.S. in recent yaers, we conducted a survey by visiting three eastern educational institutions. This report provides the results of our interviews at those institutions.
