The Canadian Graduate and Professional Student Survey (CGPSS), which is administered every three years, is the largest graduate student survey of its kind in Canada. It is designed to provide universities with information regarding the quality of their graduate programs as assessed by their own graduate students.
Western has participated in each administration of the CGPSS, starting with the pilot project in 2005. For 2022, graduate students at over 50 universities across Canada will take part. The results will generate a national understanding of students’ views about their graduate education.
We openly acknowledge that this continues to be a difficult time for many members of our community – as such, the decision for Western to participate in the survey this year was not an easy one. Given that other institutions across the country are moving forward with the survey, we did not feel it was appropriate to deprive our students of this mechanism to provide their feedback.
The survey is confidential. It will take approximately 25 minutes to complete, and can be saved and completed in more than one sitting. The survey is also intended for graduate degree students only (not diploma, exchange or visiting students).
Participation in this survey is voluntary, and students may refuse to participate or withdraw at any time.
The survey launches on February 14 and will run until March 14. Graduate students will receive an email to participate from grad-survey@uwo.ca.
