2018 UC Undergraduate Experience Survey (UCUES) Departmental Results and Summary Upper‐Division Students Only Introduction This report presents survey results pertaining to student ratings of various aspects of their experiences on the campus and in their majors. It focuses on the following survey sections: (a) general experience, (b) skill development and (c) major evaluation. The general experience questions ask students to rate their experiences with topics such as their overall academic experience and sense of belonging on campus. The skill development section asks students to self‐assess their skill levels (e.g., Quantitative Skills) when they started at Berkeley compared to at the time of taking the survey. The major evaluation questions ask students to rate their satisfaction with major‐specific aspects of their experiences, such as advising, faculty instruction, and the quality of courses. UCUES results for each academic unit are shared with department chairs, deans, and the senior administration. The results are also considered as part of the Academic Program Review process, and a subset is included in the program review data summaries. UCUES is administered in all of the University of California undergraduate campuses every other year to all undergraduate students over the age of 18. This report includes survey responses by upper‐division students only. Major affiliation is based on declared students at the time of the Spring 2018 Census (third‐fifth week of instruction). This report includes three sections: Response Rates, Mean Scores, and Percentage Distribution. Response Rates This section displays how many upper‐division students from each unit were invited to take the survey and how many responded. Those figures are used to compute a response rate. For example, if an academic department had 100 declared upper‐division students and 40 of them responded to the survey, the response rate would be 40%. Two different response rates are provided, one for the general experience and skill development sections of the survey, and the other for the major evaluation section. Students with more than one declared major could choose only one major to evaluate. Units highlighted in green did not receive enough responses to be included in subsequent sections. Mean Scores This section displays the mean score each unit received for a select group of survey questions. These questions asked respondents to rate their satisfaction or experience on a 6‐point Likert scale. Each of the questions had 6 possible responses, ranging from, for example, "Very dissatisfied" (1) to "Very satisfied" (6). For all of the questions, "1" indicates the least positive response and "6" the most positive. The Mean Score is the average (arithmetic mean) of all of the responses. For example, of 10 respondents, 5 respond "Very dissatisfied" and 5 respond "Very satisfied"; the mean score is 3.5. The calculation is (5*1+5*6)/10 = 3.5. Higher mean scores indicate more positive responses. To protect student privacy, mean scores are not shown for units that received 5 responses or fewer to the following question: "How satisfied are you with each of the following aspects of your educational experience in the major: Quality of upper‐division courses in your major?" Percentage Distribution This section displays for each unit the percentage of respondents who reported being, for example, "Very dissatisfied ‐ Dissatisfied," "Somewhat dissatisfied ‐ Somewhat satisfied," or "Satisfied ‐ Very satisfied." For example, of 10 respondents, 2 respond "Dissatisfied," 4 respond "Somewhat satisfied," 2 respond "Satisfied," and 2 respond "Very satisfied." The responses are grouped as follows: 2 "Very dissatisfied ‐ Dissatisfied," 4 "Somewhat dissatisfied ‐ Somewhat satisfied," and 4 "Satisfied ‐ Very satisfied." The percentages are 20% "Very dissatisfied ‐ Dissatisfied," 40% "Somewhat dissatisfied ‐ Somewhat satisfied," and 40% "Satisfied ‐ Very satisfied." To protect student privacy, percentages are not shown for units that received 5 responses or fewer to the following question: "How satisfied are you with each of the following aspects of your educational experience in the major: Quality of upper‐division courses in your major?" The grouped percentages allow for a quick understanding of the distribution of responses and an easy way to determine, for example, the percentage of respondents who were most and least satisfied. However, the distribution within each grouping is not apparent. The mean scores, on the other hand, reflect the entire range of responses. See the Methodological Notes section at the end for a list of survey questions as seen by students and additional methodological documentation.

2018 UC Undergraduate Experience Survey (UCUES)Departmental Results and Summary

Upper‐Division Students OnlyIntroduction

This report presents survey results pertaining to student ratings of various aspects of their experiences on the campus and in their majors. It focuses on the following survey sections: (a) general experience,  (b) skill development and (c) major evaluation. The general experience questions ask students to rate their experiences with topics such as their overall academic experience and sense of belonging on campus. The skill development section asks students to self‐assess their skill levels (e.g., Quantitative Skills) when they started at Berkeley compared to at the time of taking the survey. The major evaluation questions ask students to rate their satisfaction with major‐specific aspects of their experiences, such as advising, faculty instruction, and the quality of courses.

UCUES results for each academic unit are shared with department chairs, deans, and the senior administration. The results are also considered as part of the Academic Program Review process, and a subset is included in the program review data summaries. 

UCUES is administered in all of the University of California undergraduate campuses every other year to all undergraduate students over the age of 18. This report includes survey responses by upper‐division students only. Major affiliation is based on declared students at the time of the Spring 2018 Census (third‐fifth week of instruction). 

This report includes three sections: Response Rates, Mean Scores, and Percentage Distribution.

Response RatesThis section displays how many upper‐division students from each unit were invited to take the survey and how many responded. Those figures are used to compute a response rate. For example, if an academic department had 100 declared upper‐division students and 40 of them responded to the survey, the response rate would be 40%. Two different response rates are provided, one for the general experience and skill development sections of the survey, and the other for the major evaluation section. Students with more than one declared major could choose only one major to evaluate. Units highlighted in green did not receive enough responses to be included in subsequent sections.

Mean ScoresThis section displays the mean score each unit received for a select group of survey questions. These questions asked respondents to rate their satisfaction or experience on a 6‐point Likert scale. Each of the questions had 6 possible responses, ranging from, for example, "Very dissatisfied" (1) to "Very satisfied" (6). For all of the questions, "1" indicates the least positive response and "6" the most positive. The Mean Score is the average (arithmetic mean) of all of the responses. For example, of 10 respondents, 5 respond "Very dissatisfied" and 5 respond "Very satisfied"; the mean score is 3.5. The calculation is (5*1+5*6)/10 = 3.5. Higher mean scores indicate more positive responses. To protect student privacy, mean scores are not shown for units that received 5 responses or fewer to the following question: "How satisfied are you with each of the following aspects of your educational experience in the major: Quality of upper‐division courses in your major?"

Percentage DistributionThis section displays for each unit the percentage of respondents who reported being, for example, "Very dissatisfied ‐ Dissatisfied," "Somewhat dissatisfied ‐ Somewhat satisfied," or "Satisfied ‐ Very satisfied." For example, of 10 respondents, 2 respond "Dissatisfied," 4 respond "Somewhat satisfied," 2 respond "Satisfied," and 2 respond "Very satisfied." The responses are grouped as follows: 2 "Very dissatisfied ‐ Dissatisfied," 4 "Somewhat dissatisfied ‐ Somewhat satisfied," and 4 "Satisfied ‐ Very satisfied." The percentages are 20% "Very dissatisfied ‐ Dissatisfied," 40% "Somewhat dissatisfied ‐ Somewhat satisfied," and 40% "Satisfied ‐ Very satisfied." To protect student privacy, percentages are not shown for units that received 5 responses or fewer to the following question: "How satisfied are you with each of the following aspects of your educational experience in the major: Quality of upper‐division courses in your major?"  

The grouped percentages allow for a quick understanding of the distribution of responses and an easy way to determine, for example, the percentage of respondents who were most and least satisfied. However, the distribution within each grouping is not apparent. The mean scores, on the other hand, reflect the entire range of responses.

See the Methodological Notes section at the end for a list of survey questions as seen by students and additional methodological documentation.

2018 UC Undergraduate Experience Survey (UCUES)Departmental Results and Summary

Methodological Notes

The responses to the general experience and skill development sections are attributed to the major or majors in which the student was declared in Spring 2018 at the time of Census (third‐fifth week of instruction). Responses of students with more than one major are counted under each major but only once within any given academic unit. For example, responses by a student with a double major in History and Economics are counted under both departments but once in the Division of Social Sciences, the College of Letters & Science, and the Campus. A student with a double major in two different L&S divisions, is counted in each Department and each Division, but once at the levels of the College and Campus. In the Major Evaluation section, student responses are attributed only to one unit at each level even if the respondents have multiple majors given that students with more than one major were asked to evaluate just one of their majors.

Response RatesGeneral Experience and Skill Development: the number of upper‐division students who responded to the question "How satisfied are you with the following aspects of your campus experiences/education: UC Berkeley GPA?" divided by the number of upper‐division students in the unit who were invited to take the survey. Responses of students with more than one major are counted under each major but only once within any given academic unit.

Major Evaluation: the number of upper‐division declared majors who chose to evaluate the unit and responded to the question "How satisfied are you with each of the following aspects of your educational experience in the major: Quality of upper‐division courses in your major?" divided by the number of declared upper‐division students in the unit who were invited to take the survey. Students with more than one declared major had to choose one major to evaluate. A student's response is attributed to a unit only if the student was declared in the major at the time of the Spring 2018 Census and chose to evaluate that major. 

Mean ScoresSurvey questions in this report asked respondents to rate their satisfaction or experience on a 6‐point Likert scale. Each of the questions has 6 possible responses, and each response has a numerical value. The least positive response has the value "1" and the most positive, the value "6," as follows:

Very dissatisfied=1; Dissatisfied=2; Somewhat dissatisfied=3; Somewhat satisfied=4; Satisfied=5; Very satisfied=6Strongly disagree=1; Disagree=2; Somewhat disagree=3; Somewhat agree=4; Agree=5; Strongly agree=6Very poor=1; Poor=2; Fair=3; Good=4; Very good=5; Excellent=6

The Mean Scores are the average (arithmetic mean) of the responses by upper‐division students in the major/department/division/college who responded to the question. Higher mean scores indicate more positive responses.
