What is Qualtrics Research Suite?

The Qualtrics Research Suite is a user-friendly, feature rich, web-based survey tool which allows users to build, distribute, and analyze online surveys, collaborate in real-time, and export data in multiple formats.

Who can use it?

Qualtrics Research Suite is available to all current Boston University students, faculty, staff and those with a sponsored Guest account.

BMC researchers who have Qualtrics credentials based on their status as a Boston University faculty, staff, or student can use this tool to perform Boston Medical Center research, if the research does not involve the collection of individually identifiable health information. For example, email addresses and phone numbers are HIPAA identifiers. So, research subjects have to be given anonymous email addresses or phone numbers to answer surveys (for more information, please visit: https://www.bu.edu/hipaa/hipaa-faqs/).
