Policy on Student Surveys
Policy detailing the mechanisms for requesting approval to conduct a survey with students.
Policy and Guidelines
The purpose of this policy is to set out the guidelines regarding student experience surveying in the University.
Student Surveys are a vital method of collecting and assessing feedback in order to effect positive change. When used correctly, they can be a crucial way of providing information that can improve the Student Experience. This policy establishes a coordinated approach for student experience surveying at the University of Glasgow. The results are also shared for strategic planning purposes.
The policy aims to:
- Assure, where feasible, the quality and content of student experience surveys
- Ensure that results are shared in a timely fashion, where appropriate
- Disseminate results through the appropriate staff around the University
- Reduce survey fatigue and protect crucial surveys by controlling student surveys around the University.
This policy covers: All institution-led student experience surveys of University of Glasgow students.
