Student Experience in the Research University (SERU) Survey

The Rutgers University Student Experience in the Research University (SERU) survey is an online survey of all enrolled Rutgers undergraduates. 2009 is the first year it will be administered at Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey.

The SERU survey was developed for the University of California System by the UC Berkeley Center for Studies in Higher Education to broaden understanding of the undergraduate experience on the UC campuses and facilitate improvements on campus. The survey was tailored to research universities and has been administered regularly since 2004 to the UC campuses. This is the first year that the SERU researchers have invited other research universities to participate in the administration of SERU on their respective campuses. Rutgers undergraduates will be joining undergraduates at institutions that include the Universities of California at Berkeley, Michigan, Minnesota, Pittsburg and Florida in responding to the SERU survey.

The SERU survey is available to Rutgers undergraduates April 9, 2009 via the following link: https://osr2.berkeley.edu/Users/seru/2009Rutgers/loginc.html
