    This thesis constructs performance measures for the use of monitoring the curriculum reform project at the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Helsinki. Medical education is in turmoil not only due to developments in modern health care, but also due to the changing role of the physician. Changes are always disruptive and should be planned and managed accordingly to reduce the disruption to operations. This thesis studies not only the performance measures used to manage curriculum reforms and evaluate the outcomes of these reforms, but also the change agendas behind these reforms. It is important to understand these agendas as they influence the goals set for a project. Based on the literature study on the performance measures and change agendas, performance metrics for the curriculum reform project at the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Helsinki are constructed. The metrics utilise the well-known balanced scorecard framework, adapting the four perspectives to a higher education environment. The resulting scorecard utilises many existing feedback and evaluation channels as well as several new metrics.
