gradSERU Survey Response Rate Update – Enter to win an Amazon gift card up to $200!
If you haven’t already, we encourage you to complete the national
Graduate Student Experience in the Research University (gradSERU) survey to provide our department with valuable insights into your well-being, research and teaching experiences, program climate, career plans, and financial support.
You should have received the first invitation to take the survey on
March 10 from seru@purdue.edu.
The survey takes 20-40 minutes, and your responses will help Purdue and our department make informed decisions to enhance policies, funding, and resources for graduate students.
Why Participate?
·
All Purdue administrators, faculty, staff, and students can access data and reports from Purdue and other participating institutions,
making your feedback part of a broader effort to improve graduate education. Insights from the survey are used to help advocate for your needs.
·
Your name will be entered to win
one of 60 Amazon gift cards at $50 each. If Purdue reaches a 25% response rate, you will be eligible for an additional drawing to win
one of five $200 gift cards.
At this time, the gradSERU response rate is LOW at only at 8%! We need at least 25% to ensure the collected data accurately reflect
the opinions and experiences of the entire grad student population, leading to more reliable and actionable insights for decision-making.
Take the survey today using the
personalized link in an email received from seru@purdue.edu.
If you cannot find the email, contact seru@purdue.edu.
For more information, please visit gradSERU FAQ.
The window for you to take the gradSERU survey has been extended through
