Administered Surveys

Santa Clara University collects a variety of student and faculty self-reported data on activities, attitudes, satisfaction, and values as they relate to the mission of Santa Clara, which is to 'educate citizens and leaders to build a more just, humane, and sustainable world.' These data support policy research, assessment and institutional planning and decision-making.
