Surveys
Oakland University participates in large-scale nationally benchmarked student surveys and topical surveys of interest to the university. Summary reports from the latest administrations are available on this page and additional detailed reports are available by request.
The National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE) asks students about their undergraduate experience, including their views about the quality of their education and how they spend their time. Student responses are used to improve the quality of education here at OU, and data from NSSE are used in a variety of different ways across the university.
