Postgraduate Taught Engagement Survey

For PGT students

About the survey

At BCU, we want our students to have the opportunity to feed back on what we're doing well and where we need to improve at all stages of the student experience – the Postgraduate Taught Engagement Survey is your opportunity to do that.

This short survey for all Postgraduate Taught students will allow us to make changes in response to your feedback and help us shape decisions on areas such as teaching, academic support, assessments, support services and more.

The questionnaire takes around 15 minutes to complete. You will need your Student ID number and year of birth to log in, for example:

Username: 123456

Frequently asked questions

What happens to the results?

Your feedback is important. Over one hundred universities and colleges take part. This means we can compare your experience against similar postgraduates at other institutions to see if we are supporting your learning as we should. We use the findings to improve our courses and the learning experience for future students.

Is it anonymous?

Your survey response is confidential to the team processing the results and no reporting outside of this team will identify any individual. Any results communicated to teaching staff will be anonymised.

The survey asks that any comments you make should not identify yourself or any specific members of staff.

What will I be asked?

PTES concentrates on your course and includes:

The experience of teaching and learning, including: staff, learning materials, working with other students;
Engagement and course challenge;

Why should I take part?

The Postgraduate Taught Experience Survey is your chance to tell us your thoughts about your course. The results help us compare how we are doing with other institutions, to make changes that will improve what we do in future and to keep doing the things that you value. This will help improve the experience of students like you in the future.
