Service to Community and State Metrics

Institutional scorecards are an important way to gauge progress toward goals and objectives. UAB began using scorecards in 2002 and the scorecards on this site correlate to UAB's institutional goals through 2015. This scorecard currently shows 2010 data but data for successive years will be added at a later time.
