2024 UW CEE End-of-Year Undergraduate Survey – Please take the survey now

Hi undergraduate students,

Please (please, please, please) take our department’s official end-of-year undergraduate student survey. It takes 15 minutes and really helps us improve the department. We base much of what we do to improve on what you tell us in THIS survey. Incentives to take the survey:

  • On June 5th one lucky survey participant will win a $500 gift card to either the Apple or Microsoft Store.
  • There will also be 10 prizes of $25 Starbucks gift cards.
  • I will award 2 Starbucks gift cards on Friday (5/16/24) at random to those that complete the survey by Friday 5/16/24 NOON (gift cards awarded by e-mail).

These prizes depend on a high participation rate (80% for seniors, 70% overall). This is totally achievable.

In advance, thank you for taking the survey. What you have to say means a lot to us.

Also, thank you for being a student in our department – our reputation is built on you.

Whatever your challenge is, keep at it. We support and celebrate you.
