National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE)
About the NSSE
The National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE) ("nessie") was designed to provide information colleges and universities can use to improve the quality of undergraduate education. NSSE has been facilitated by the University of Indiana for the past 20 years.
"Through its student survey, The College Student Report, NSSE annually collects information at hundreds of four-year colleges and universities about first-year and senior students' participation in programs and activities that institutions provide for their learning and personal development. The results provide an estimate of how undergraduates spend their time and what they gain from attending college."
