Do you identify as a woman in engineering? Want a chance to win a $50 gift card? Take this research survey to help us collect data on how women-identifying engineering students use and interact with university libraries! Click here for the survey
Librarians in the UC system are conducting a research study to find out more about how women-identifying engineering students use and interact with the library in order to inform future programs and services. Survey objective: Contribute to the academic and professional success of women engineers across the UC system.
Anonymous results from the survey will inform future library services for women in engineering. The survey is voluntary, completely anonymous, and takes approximately 10 minutes to complete. Respondents must be 18 years or older to participate.
Respondents who complete the survey will be given the option to enter a random selection drawing for a $50 gift card. A total of 100 respondents will receive $50 gift cards. Eligible respondents will be directed to a separate form to share contact information for the purposes of the drawing. If shared, contact information will not be linked in any way to responses. Winners will be selected via a random number generator to select 100 winners. Winners will be notified via email by the study PIs. You do not have to complete the full survey to enter the drawing and participation in the study is not required in order to participate in the drawing. If you wish to participate in the raffle and not in the survey, please email the study PIs for instructions.
Questions about the survey, the data collection, and its uses, can be directed to the Co-Principal Investigators Shelby Hallman (shallman@library.ucla.edu) and Wynn Tranfield (wynntranfield@ucsc.edu).
