General information:
Some Graduate Schools use questionnaires for the monitoring and evaluation of the progress of a PhD project. Questionnaires are usually sent attached to a checkpoint. Depending on the working practices of the Faculty/Graduate School, questionnaires can in some cases be sent separately.
When a checkpoint deadline is coming up you will receive a reminder email a month in advance. This email will inform you of any questionnaires accompanying the checkpoint that that must be completed.
The use/frequency/content of questionnaires depends on the Faculty/Graduate School at which you are enrolled.
What are confidential questionnaires?
Some questionnaires such as the 'Supervision Evaluation Questionnaire' are marked as confidential. This means that only the intended respondent can fill in the questionnaire and only the Graduate School coordinator may view the response.
If a questionnaire is not marked as confidential the responses can be viewed by both the PhD candidate and the supervisor.
