NRC Assessment of Research-Doctorate Programs

About the program questionnaire

The program questionnaire reported data on each program -- not on individual faculty, or students.  Data came largely from PBA analyses of central records, with some data collected directly from programs by PBA.

• Markup of questionnaire showing CU-Boulder sources of information.
• Guide to section of the questionnaire on doctoral student financial support
(Word file with info on and link to results for each program)
• Several items on the program questionnaire addressed policies and practices, not numbers.  E.g., does the program offer an orientation for new students.  PBA surveyed programs/depts to get this information.  PDF of UCB web questionnaire of policy questions for programs.  Summary of program responses to the UCB web questionnaire of policy questions (Excel)
