COACHE Survey

During the academic year 2023-2024, the COACHE* Faculty Job Satisfaction Survey was administered at Carleton. We received the results in late July and have been working to understand the data and its implications. The survey captures faculty sentiment regarding teaching, service and research, tenure and promotion, departmental engagement and collegiality, and other aspects of the academic workplace.

“My goal is to use the survey results in conversation with you and in collaboration with your faculty representatives to help us construct our agenda for the next few years. In other words, we will use that data to inform what goals we pursue and how we prioritize among those goals.”
