Role
Our students’ voices matter. Student feedback is vital to everything we do. That’s why we need your help to raise awareness and encourage completion of student surveys and feedback opportunities, including the National Student Survey and other strategic student surveys.
The National Student Survey is a UK wide, official survey, which is completed by final year students and asks about their university experiences. Results from the survey helps the University of Leicester to make improvements and helps prospective students to decide where they want to study. It takes place between January and April 2026. For more information see thestudentsurvey.com
Additionally, you may be involved in further survey promotion in March during a three-week intensive period.
Our student surveys invite feedback which we use to help make improvements to the student experience.
