CAFÉ SURVEY

Executive Express Café Survey

Introduction

Executive Express Café survey held in February 2013 collected the responses of students, faculty and staff members for analyzing the feasibility of opening Executive Express Café at College of Technology that is already serving in College of Business. This assignment summarizes the results of the survey and hence the summary is a feasibility report for Executive Express Café extension to College of Technology.

Total 225 students participated in the survey. When they were asked about their designation, their responses were as follows.

In the distribution of participants there were more students than Faculty/Staff as shown in the above Pie Chart. In the survey, 39.7% of the participants were students and 69.3% were the members of faculty/staff (See Table 1 in List of Tables).

The students were further asked about their current school standing. Their responses are summarized as follows.

Most of the students that participated in the survey were senior and graduation student were the least to participate. Among the students who participated in the survey, 9.6% were freshman, 3.8% were graduation students, 27.4% were junior, 42% were senior and 17.2% were sophomore (See Table 2 in List of Tables).

Proportion of students and members of faculty/staff in total survey participants is slightly different as one can see in the pie chart. There is a minimum chance of biasness in results in the opinions of students and faculty members but within the students there are large differences in the participants according to their current school standing. Graduation students are the least to be represented and estimate of their opinion might become biased.
