To establish a student-centered learning environment, HKUST has developed the Intake Survey which focuses on understanding the background and needs of UG students at intake. It was first launched in 2007 and throughout the years, the questionnaire used has been periodically reviewed and revised, if needed, to collect systematic and useful data. It now covers the following areas:
- Academic experience in pre-university education
- Out-of-class activities in pre-university education
- Planning and preparing for university education
- Getting started at HKUST
- Goals and expectations for UG study
The Intake Survey also forms the first of a series of Annual UG Student SurveysNote. Together they provide the University with data covering essential aspects of all UG students and their UG experiences.
At the end of data collection, aggregate results are consolidated and made available to Schools/AIS, departments and support units.
Note: It includes Intake Survey, First Year Experience Survey (FYES) and Student Engagement and Satisfaction Questionnaire Survey (for final year students, SESQ).
