In 2024, Academic Affairs expanded its research on belonging by surveying 725 graduate students on their experiences at Montclair. In addition to answering questions on belonging, they also told us why they chose Montclair for their graduate studies as well as how highly they rated us on factors like diversity, student success, variety of programs, and teaching quality. They also told us about their work demands, their educational goals, and their academic self-concept (e.g. rating their mathematical ability). Join Christopher Donoghue and Eunice Park as they unpack these findings about graduate education at Montclair and offer insights on how we can improve the student experience.

This study was commissioned by Provost Junius Gonzales to provide insights to all Montclair faculty and staff in their work ensuring student success. Understanding the insights gained from this survey will be helpful as we craft and hone our programming and work in and outside of classrooms. All members of the Montclair community are welcome. Light refreshments, sponsored by Chris Donoghue, will be provided.
