Hello! This is a short survey aimed to get a rough idea on how the FYMSiC community is collectively handling our academic workload. The survey is completely voluntary and anonymous, and I'll share a broad summary of the results during our FYMSiC online gathering on Thursday Aug. 3rd.

Which of the following best describes you?

I'm an early-career academic.

I'm a mid-career academic.

I'm a senior academic.

None of the above -- I'm not working in academia.

Clear selection

In your estimation, how many hours do you work (for your primary academic position) during an average week?

Fewer than 30.

Between 30 and 40.

Between 40 and 50.

Between 50 and 60.

More than 60.

Clear selection

Which of the following statements best describes your current sentiment?

I wish I could find more time to devote to my academic work.

I'm relatively happy with how much time I spend at work versus how much time I spend outside of work.

I wish I could spend more time outside of work.

Clear selection

Is there a particularly time-consuming aspect of your academic work that you hope can be handled more efficiently? If so, can you tell us about it?

On the flip side, is there an aspect of your academic work that you wish you could find more time towards? If so, can you tell us about it?

Last question! Is there anything else you'd like to add while we're on the topic of academic workload?

This is the end of the survey! Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts with us. If you have any questions/comments/concerns about the survey, please feel free to contact Gary Au at gary.au@usask.ca.
