The purpose of this survey is to collect information about Research Software Engineers (RSEs). These are the people who create the software that is used in research.
You have received this link because you are a member of the UK RSE Association or you were identified as someone working in an RSE role. There is currently little reliable information about the RSE community, so we have been asked to collect this information to help funders and other research organisations develop policies that will support RSEs. This questionnaire gives you the opportunity to express your views about your current job and give us information about your career path.
Please note that this research is not compulsory and even if you decide to participate you can withdraw at any moment.
There are 63 questions in this survey. It takes about 10 minutes to complete.
This study is conducted by the University of Southampton on behalf of the Software Sustainability Institute and complies with University of Southampton ethics guidelines (reference no.: ERGO/FPSE/25269).
