Dear Kumpula student!

We’re currently researching bachelor and master students’ experiences of sense of belonging and studying at the Faculty of Science, and how these experiences are related to demographic background.

Please help us by filling in a short survey (Webropol) no later than 23rd of November, 2025. Responding only takes approx. 5 minutes of your time.

All responses are handled anonymously and confidentially. With the help of the information from this research, practices can be developed to better support different students in their studies.
