Students were offered a number of prizes as incentives throughout the survey. We have given away:

Prize winners were from all Faculties. The grand prize of a Nintendo Wii was awarded to a second year undergraduate from Aeronautical Engineering.

The prize of £1000 for the School with the best response rate will be awarded to the School of Chemical Engineering and Analytical Sciences which achieved a response rate of 19.25%. A full breakdown of the response rates by School can be viewed at:

National Student Survey

The National Student Survey closed on 30 April. The University achieved an excellent response rate of 65%, just ahead of the sector average of 62%, and a small increase on last year’s response rate (62%). The NSS is completed by final year undergraduates, and focuses mainly on the Teaching and Learning aspects of the student experience.
