The Student Affairs Research Reports convey information about annual surveys coordinated through the U of M’s participation in the Canadian University Survey Consortium (CUSC).  The U of M is a founding member of CUSC and annually participates in the surveys of students that focus on, according to a three year cycle, first year students, undergraduate students and graduating students.

The following series of six research reports highlight the findings of the respective Surveys of Undergraduate Students.
For comparison purposes, the participating universities are categorized into three groups:

• Group 1 consists of universities offering primarily undergraduate studies and with smaller student populations.
• Group 2 consists of universities offering both undergraduate and graduate studies and tend to be of medium size in terms of student population.

• Group 3 consists of universities offering both undergraduate and graduate degrees, with most having professional schools as well.  These tend to be the largest institutions in terms of student populations.

  The Student Affairs Research Reports are published by the University of Manitoba division of Student Affairs through Student Services.
