You can help shape UAB's future
Since 2017, UAB has partnered with ModernThink to survey employees on how well certain aspects of the university, its leadership, and its processes are working.
The campus engagement survey is an important tool that helps us determine actions for improvement. Results from previous surveys have been instrumental in numerous improvements — from performance management, communication, workforce development, and employee-learning experiences to new institution-wide awards and more. Learn about these ongoing improvements on the 2023 Survey Actions page.
The most recent UAB Campus Engagement Survey was administered February 3-17, 2025. The overall response rate for the 2025 survey was 49 percent of workgroups A and F, with more than 5,000 employees participating — the highest number of responses since the survey started in 2017. The response rate was 57 percent for staff and 48 percent for faculty.
The findings of the 2025 survey will be presented at the UAB Town Hall: Campus Engagement Survey Results on April 23 at 1 p.m. in the Hill Student Center Alumni Theater.
