Academic Insights Measure (AIM) Survey
This instrument will be administered each spring semester and asks students to report
how they spent their time during the previous fall semester engaging in such activities
as studying, meeting with instructors and advisers, sleeping, working one or more
jobs and accessing campus resources. In partnership with the Office of Data Analytics
and Institutional Research (DAIR), SRI hopes to assess this data to determine and
share with the UNT community what successful students do to achieve academic excellence.
Early Start
Early Start is a summer bridge program for first year science, technology, engineering
and mathematics (STEM) majors. The goals of this program are to increase the students'
knowledge and confidence in STEM subjects and college writing, and to help them transition
more successfully into university life. This residential program is designed to offer
freshman STEM majors the opportunity to earn up to six (6) hours of graded credit
during the 5-Week Two Session of summer school. See EarlyStart.unt.edu for additional details »
