Graduate students invited to participate in Graduate Student Experience Survey

Purdue University graduate students are invited to complete the gradSERU survey (IRB-2021-25-Exempt), a comprehensive tool used to gauge graduate student experiences. This is one of the only universitywide surveys given to West Lafayette, Indianapolis and online graduate students. Insights from the survey are used by leaders across the university to inform decisions impacting graduate students.

Participation incentives: All graduate students who complete the survey will be entered into a drawing for a chance to win one of 60 Amazon gift cards at $50 each. Additionally, if the response rate reaches 25%, an extra drawing will be held, with five winners each receiving a $200 Amazon gift card.

Faculty and staff support: Faculty and staff are encouraged to promote the survey among graduate students to help achieve a high response rate, ensuring that the data collected is both comprehensive and actionable.

The gradSERU is administered by Institutional Data Analytics + Assessment. More information about the survey is available on the gradSERU webpage.
