hector.rodriguez@ucalgary.ca

As a Senior Institutional Analyst, I specialize in transforming complex university data into clear, actionable insights that support institutional planning, policy development, and continuous improvement. My work spans a wide range of data sources, including student enrolment, academic performance, space utilization, tuition, and survey results related to student experience and alumni outcomes.

I lead initiatives that integrate advanced survey analysis, U15 benchmarking, and dynamic reporting tools to enhance institutional understanding and strategic decision-making. I also develop tools and training materials to promote data literacy and empower colleagues across campus to engage with data confidently and effectively.

With a strong foundation in analytics and a commitment to usability, I bridge technical expertise with institutional priorities. I’m also exploring the use of machine learning to analyze unstructured data, such as open-ended student feedback, to uncover deeper insights that inform responsive, evidence-based decisions
