The
UAF Office of Planning, Analysis and Institutional Research was re-established
at UAF in the autumn of 1998. Originally located in Bunnell, its offices
moved to the Butrovich building during the summer of 1999 in order to
co-locate with Statewide Budget and Institutional Research (SWBIR).
Co-location allows for cross-training and data sharing between the two
institutional research entities. Today, UAF PAIR remains co-located
with Statewide Planning and Budget Development (SWPBD).

day-to-day operations of the office, assigning data requests, carrying
