Everyone is encouraged to fill out this 10 minute survey, even if you are not planning on attending DWSP events or joining the Canvas group. This survey addresses challenges and concerns that any student working on their thesis or dissertation may have, and will be taken into account by all offices involved, for future implementation in services provided to students.
