Conduct a Survey

Qualtrics is a national company that hosts Web-based survey software to help organizations create and distribute surveys, collect and store data, and create and access reports.

Who Can Use Qualtrics?

This campus wide survey service is available to all students, staff, and faculty with an active Smith portal login. To access your account go to smithcollege.qualtrics.com. Enter your Smith portal information (same username and password as Smith mail, Moodle, etc.). If you are using the survey service for the first time, an account is automatically created for you upon login.

Students

Students must inform the Office of Institutional Research prior to launching a survey so that we may adjust your account settings to meet your research needs. To do so, follow these steps:
