College/Department Insert Surveys

In order to assist NC State colleges, departments, and programs get data more specific to their assessment needs, UPA will include "insert" surveys along with the Graduating Senior (GSS) and Alumni surveys. An insert survey consists of questions developed by an individual academic unit, and is answered by only those students/alumni in/from that unit.

UPA:

• provides Associate Deans, Department Heads, and designated survey contacts within each department complete information about inserts the semester before the inserts will be administered
• provides assistance in designing an insert
• what questions to ask to get the desired information
• question wording
• question order
• response options
• etc.
• does all necessary programming
• administers the insert along with the campus-wide survey
• analyzes the data
• provides the college/department/program with the final data and results. (Insert results will not be posted to the UPA web site.)

Revising Your Insert: Information and Suggestions

Inserts included with the Graduating Senior Survey may be revised every other year (e.g., the same insert is used with the AY02-03 and AY03-04 GSS). Alumni Survey inserts may be revised every time the survey is administered. For more information and suggestions about revising your insert, read the insert FAQ.

See the inserts included in the AY06-07 GSS.
