Graduate Research Experience Survey

The Graduate Research Experience Survey (GRES) is offered to all enrolled graduate research candidates annually. The survey includes Likert scale statements, checkbox questions and optional open-ended questions across a range of topics to gain about the experiences of our candidates during their research program. The results are used to identify areas where there are gaps or opportunities for improvement, to inform new initiatives and highlight what we are doing well. It also allows us to better understand the experiences of our candidates across the faculties and different modes of study in order to better support and respond to any gaps in training or supervision needs.

The GRES is offered online in November-December each year and all candidates are encouraged to complete the survey.

For more information about the GRES please contact researcherdevelopment@csu.edu.au.
