Graduate Student Survey

The University of Manitoba strives to ensure that graduate education and student experience are the best they can be. To this end, we recently conducted an online survey asking grad students to rate their experiences with various aspects of graduate studies.

We had an exceptional response rate of 39%! Thanks to all of our engaged and motivated graduate students who participated in this survey. Our goal is continuous improvement, and the valuable input provided will be used to enhance the educational experience of current and future graduate students.

The winners of the random prize draw are currently being contacted. Thanks again to all who replied!
