CIRP

The Freshmen CIRP (Cooperative Institutional Research Program) Survey is a comprehensive survey designed by the Higher Education Research Institute at the University of California, Los Angeles. It is administered to those freshmen enrolled in University Success courses in the Fall semesters.

The CIRP Supplement is a marketing survey of those students who take the CIRP. It has interesting facts such as favorite television show and radio stations in addition to other information. It helps the institution to better utilize its marketing dollars.

The Graduating Student Survey goes to students who apply for graduation. There are two different instruments – one for undergraduates and one for graduates. They contain assessments of university services, offices, and activities. Additionally, these surveys contain many other interesting pieces of information including 1st generation college student information.

The Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS), established as the core postsecondary education data collection program for NCES, is a system of surveys designed to collect data from all primary providers of postsecondary education. IPEDS is a single, comprehensive system designed to encompass all institutions and educational organizations whose primary purpose is to provide postsecondary education. The IPEDS system is built around a series of interrelated surveys to collect institution-level data in such areas as enrollments, program completions, faculty, staff, and finances.

The National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE) asks undergraduates about how they spend their time, what they feel they've gained from classes, their assessment of the quality of their interactions with faculty and friends, and other important activities. The survey is administered each spring to random samples of first-year and senior students at four-year colleges and universities.
