The central focus of the Institutional Survey Research is to measure and assess the satisfaction of stakeholders on the facilities and services offered by QU. The unit also is involved in the process of measuring and assessing QU academic and admin units’ strategic plans key performance indicators (KPIs). In addition, we provide colleges and academic departments with survey results that are required by certain academic accreditation and quality assurance entities. We often conduct studies in which we survey faculty, students, alumni, and employers concerning their perception of and satisfaction with services provided by QU. We analyze the results, publish reports based on the survey findings, and share them with the relevant stakeholders. This helps to improve service providers in their efforts to achieve required levels of quality, in turn improving overall institutional performance. The department also assists academic and admin units, undergraduate and graduate students, and researchers from inside and outside the university in selecting the appropriate research samples for studies taking place within the university community.
