The purpose of the Provost’s QEP Development & Planning Committee (DPC) is to develop and plan a QEP addressing the topic identified by the effort of the QEP Topic selection Committee: "Leadership in Progress and Service: Creating Intentional and Transformative Learning Experiences." 

The DPC will ensure broad-based support of institutional constituencies and will focus on the improvement of specific student learning outcomes associated with this topic, in alignment with the QEP Assessment Plan developed by Georgia Tech’s Office of Academic Effectiveness (OAE). In performing this effort, the DPC recognizes that the QEP reflects and affirms Georgia Tech’s commitment to enhance overall institutional quality and effectiveness by its focus on this topic, which has been identified by the Institute as important to improving student learning outcomes.
