Qualtrics Survey Software Now Available

UNO is pleased to announce a campus-wide license for Qualtrics has been secured. All students, faculty, and staff now have access to this online survey software tool.

Qualtrics is an easy-to-use, powerful tool that supports a wide range of approaches, from simple questionnaires and event signup lists, to sophisticated social science research instruments with extensive scripting, randomization, and interactive question presentation.

The tool can be accessed at qualtrics.unomaha.edu. Existing Qualtrics users will maintain access to their current Qualtrics accounts while details are worked out to enable a smooth migration to the new university-wide site. New users will have accounts created upon logging in to the system.

Users of survey data collection tools should be aware of the following policies and guidelines:

• Personal information collected through surveys must be privacy protected and kept secure according to university policies
• UNO strongly discourages the use of any free online survey tool, such as SurveyMonkey or Zoomerang, due to security risks
• Use of Qualtrics is permissible for university business only; commercial use is not allowed under our site license
• Studies involving research and human subjects should consult with the Office of Research and Creative Activity (ORCA) for assistance with Institutional Review Board (IRB) compliance.
