What is Qualtrics?

Qualtrics is a web based, research surveying software.  It is the replacement for our former survey software Perseus.  Qualtrics offers many advanced, but user-friendly features such as:

• Easy survey design with question libraries, point-and-click editing, automatic choices, and question randomization.
• Comprehensive list of question types including pick, group & rank, drill down, rank order, heat map and hot spots.
  
• Collaboration
• Polls
• Distribution & Panel Management
  

Who is eligible to use Qualtrics? 

Qualtrics is available to all ECU official faculty, staff, as well as students when supervised by faculty, in a class or research setting.  Our license allows for unlimited use of the software for legitimate ECU related research and educational activities.

Prior to conducting research are there any requirements I need to follow?

Yes.  All survey distribution is subject to the University Institutional Review Board.  You need to ensure you have met their criteria before conducting any research.

How do I get a Qualtrics account?

ECU official faculty, staff and students with a PirateID may self-enroll and create an account.  You must use your PirateID credentials.  Non-ECU accounts cannot be used. Login or Create an Account Here.  This account will be immediately available to create and distribute surveys.

Do NOT create an account at the Qualtrics site, as you will not have access to any surveys or data you create there.
