Surveys

Chosen for different purposes and administered on regular cycles, surveys provide high-level information on the self-reported attitudes and behaviors of stakeholders across all segments of the university.

Survey results inform strategic planning and resource allocation. In addition, disaggregated results for individual schools are made available to help inform the development of action plans by schools and administrative units.

Surveys include:

National Survey of Student Engagement

The National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE) is administered every three years, in rotation with the Student Satisfaction Inventory, to all first-year and senior students. The NSSE provides benchmarked information about student participation in activities that support learning. It was administered for the first time at New York Tech in spring 2008 to collect information from and about students for the purpose of institutional planning.

RNL Student Satisfaction Inventory

New York Institute of Technology administers the Ruffalo Noel-Levitz Student Satisfaction Inventory (SSI) to undergraduate and graduate students during the spring semester every three years, in rotation with the NSSE. The SSI provides valuable information about student satisfaction and important issues identified by New York Tech students as well as peer institutions.
