This message is being forwarded on behalf of James Ridge, Registrar and Associate Vice President, UBC Enrolment Services:
Dear International Graduate Students,
Just as you receive regular feedback from us as you progress through your studies, we need to receive regular feedback from you. The Student Barometer is your opportunity to tell us what’s working, what’s frustrating and what you think of your university experience to date.
The survey forms part of a wider ongoing study and is independently administered for the University by the International Graduate Insight Group (i-graduate.org).
It should take you approximately ten to fifteen minutes to complete the survey.
As a thank-you for completing the questionnaire, i-graduate offers the opportunity to win a $1,000 cash prize or suggest a $1,000 donation to charity.
In addition UBC is also offering four lucky students the chance to win an iPad 2 or $500 in cash. Details are in the survey.
Please click the link for your chance to have your say and the opportunity to win one of the prizes.
http://survey.euro.confirmit.
Your response, together with the response from others, helps us to improve the student experience for current and future students. Your feedback will be combined with that of others and your name and email address removed, so that responses become anonymous.
The reporting process includes the text of any comments that you provide. You are advised to avoid making comments that might enable you to be individually identified. Further analysis may be done by UBC on the anonymized data and by taking part in the survey you agree to this.
If you want to know more about i-graduate, please go to http://www.i-graduate.org/
Thank you in advance for taking the time to tell us what you think of your university experience thus far,
James Ridge
Registrar and Associate Vice President, Enrolment Services
