University Research Services (URS) and Industry Partnerships want to hear from the people they support on a daily basis.
The units are looking to improve their communication with members of the research community at Queen鈥檚. They have kicked off the process by distributing a survey to researchers, research administrators, other service-oriented administrators, as well as graduate students.
鈥淓ffective communication is essential in our efforts to help people achieve excellence in research and scholarship at Queen鈥檚,鈥 says Karina McInnis, Executive Director, URS. 鈥淲e hope members of the research community take a few moments out of their busy day to tell us what they like and don鈥檛 like, and offer suggestions on preferred communication mechanisms.鈥
May 26 is the deadline for completing the survey
The survey asks members of the research communication to identify:
- The content they are looking for on the website.
- The content that is currently missing and should be added to the website.
- The information that鈥檚 hard to find on the current website.
- The content that should be featured on the home page/quick links of the redesigned website.
- New tools/sections they would like added to the redesigned website.
The deadline for completing the is May 26. Contact URS by email if you have any questions or concerns about the survey.
