About the My Experience survey
The My Experience survey results were released to the campus community on Feb 25, 2021. The project, which was launched in Spring 2019, queried the entire campus community about their experience. This was the first community-developed, customized survey for the UC Berkeley campus and the first of its kind in the UC system.
The aim was two-fold. First, to understand the campus experience around key areas that inform the campus climate: academic, interpersonal, health, basic needs, and professional development. Second, to provide a 360-degree view of the campus experience, including the individual academic and administrative unit level.
