Samford University continues to be a leader in high-impact education, according to data reported in the 2022 National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE). Overall, 99% of Samford graduates from the class of 2022 participated in at least one high-impact practice. Further, Samford senior students outpaced students from other private universities in the southeast as well as peer national doctoral/professional institutions in five out of six high-impact practice indicators.

The annual NSSE survey represents empirically confirmed practices in undergraduate education that reflect positive student learning outcomes. In addition to exploring student study habits, educational plans and experiences, time spent out of the classroom, and satisfaction with the campus, faculty and curriculum, the survey provides results on six high-impact practices that are positively associated with student learning, development and retention.

The six high-impact practices identified by NSSE include: completing a culminating senior experience, completing an internship or field experience, participating in service learning, participating in a learning community, participating in research with a faculty member and studying abroad.
