Administering a Survey at NC State

In May, 2015, the University approved a Regulation on surveys of NC State students, alumni, faculty, and staff. The Regulation was updated on July 9, 2024. The primary objective of the Regulation is to minimize survey fatigue and, ultimately, help improve the quality and usefulness of survey data collected for institutional and scholarly activities. The links below provide detailed information to make sure those wanting to administer a survey to members of the NC State community are aware of and in compliance with all procedures outlined in the Regulation.
