| Important Notes |
|
The Doctoral Student Experience Survey is administered to all research doctoral students at the preliminary examination stage as a required step to move on to dissertator status. For most students this is in the third or fourth year of their program. More detailed information and a link to the current survey questionnaire can be found at https://kb.wisc.edu/grad/56327. For privacy reasons, data in this visualization are redacted when there are fewer than five responses. In such cases it is often possible to increase the number of reported responses by adjusting the provided filters. Once applied, a filter will adjust all dashboards in the workbook until the filter is cleared. The academic year filter in the visualization refers to the year in which the student's degree was conferred. |
