About Us
Mission
The Data Governance Program aims to ensure information assets support Stanford’s ability to understand and dynamically respond to the requirements of its mission. It supports the effective, accurate, and appropriate use of Stanford’s administrative data assets by analysts and decision makers across the university. The team supports data stewardship activities, documentation of data, maintenance of our data catalog and development of data use policies and procedures.
