Results of CEE End-of-Year survey

Hi everyone,

I have fully processed the end-of-year survey for 2022 and would like to thank everyone who took the survey. Lots of great actionable information in there. I really appreciate everyone who did taking the time to fill out the survey with meaningful comments. Very, very helpful.

Some findings to pique your interest:

  • Overall participation rate was 77%
  • The BSCE degree is roughly 1/3 female-identity students and 2/3 male-identity students
  • The BSENVE degree is roughly 3/4 female-identity students and 1/4 male-identity students
  • Civil/Environmental Engineering internships in 2022 have (finally) surpassed pre-COVID levels (2019)
  • Half the jobs and half the internships are in the construction field (either working for an owner managing construction, a contractor, or a construction management firm)
  • About 2/3 of students like hybrid courses
  • About ¼ of students come from Community Colleges
  • Students want a computer lab upgrade
  • Student want to be scheduled in acceptable classrooms, preferably in More Hall (duh)
  • 66% of graduating seniors have had an engineering internship
  • 76% of graduating seniors plan on working after graduation (24% to grad school, and, of these, 2/3 are going to UW)

There’s much more in the report if you care to look. Again, thanks to everyone that participated.

Aloha,
