This is an example Faculty Survey - Student Satisfaction survey. This survey includes questions like:
Please tell us the type of department in which you do most of your teaching: Arts and Sciences which focuses on learning for the life of the mind, or professional which focuses on specific career preparation.
Overall, would you say your interests lie primarily in teaching, research, or both?
Do you feel incoming students at your institution are well prepared, somewhat prepared, not too prepared, or under-prepared for the level of academic study required of them?
