Methodological Survey for 3145-0101

Facilities Campus Space Questionnaire, Final

[Intro]

NSF is trying to understand how survey respondents report about research space at their various campuses, branches and other entities in the Survey of Science and Engineering Research Facilities. This will help us determine whether we need to clarify our guidelines for including entities when reporting research space. 

Please answer the following questions based on your institution’s submission of Part 1 of the FY 2011 Facilities Survey in <SUBMISSION MONTH DAY>, <SUBMISSION YEAR>.

In the following questionnaire, you will be shown a list of entities that may be related to your institution. You will be asked to identify the locations that were included in your answers to Part 1 of your FY 2011 Facilities Survey and clarify why others were excluded using a range of checkboxes. No new information about research space or repair/renovation or new construction costs will be requested.
