The survey was a very different style that year, with many fewertables and charts but much more descriptive text about particular programs illustrating thedifferent ways the first year experience is structured. Some comparisons can still be madebetween the results a decade apart. In 2009, 49 institutions responded to the survey, and 30 ofthose also responded to the 2019 survey. Many more of the responding departments had arequired chemical engineering introduction to discipline
