Feedback
We appreciate all the feedback you give us.
What you say can make a real difference to your experience at Queen Mary and for students who come after you.
There are a variety of ways you can provide feedback on your time here. We run national student surveys, which help us to compare the experience here with that of other institutions, to ensure we're supporting you in the best way possible.
At the end of every module, you are encouraged to complete an anonymous module evaluation questionnaire which provides another way for us to improve upon current modules and courses.
You can also suggest improvements to one of a number of representatives.
Student Survey Season
Student surveys are an important opportunity for you to tell us about your experience at Queen Mary, in order to help us make the changes you want to see. All surveys now run during the Student Survey Season in the spring term.
- National Student Survey for all final-year undergraduates
- UK Engagement Survey for all other undergraduate students
- Postgraduate Taught Experience Survey for all postgraduate taught students
- Postgraduate Research Experience Survey for all postgraduate research students.
What are Module Experience surveys?
Module Experience surveys allow you to give your experiences directly to your teacher who is normally the Module Organiser. You complete a survey for each module you take once you’ve finished it, normally at the end of the semester.
The surveys are completed on a platform called Evasys and you can access all the surveys open to you using your Queen Mary login details. Once the survey window is closed your Module Organiser is expected to respond to your feedback by email within fifteen working days.
Access the Evasys dashboard.
Your responses are confidential. Members of staff who receive your feedback will not be able to identify you. More information on confidentiality of these surveys and where that may not apply can be found on MyQMUL.
Why should you complete the surveys?
Module Organisers receive the results and comments from surveys as soon as they close. This feedback can help them make changes to how the module is taught next time. If something was amazing or didn’t work so well your voice helps improve it for other students on your course. Your teachers care about doing a good job so honest, constructive feedback helps them understand what worked and what could be better.
How you should give your feedback?
Please provide feedback in line with Queen Mary’s values of inclusivity, integrity and accountability.
Remember: This feedback will go directly to your Module Organiser, so you should use constructive language when giving feedback. Focus on:
- What worked.
- How could things improve.
When giving feedback, reference specific experiences or examples, this helps staff understand the context and take meaningful action.
Where does your feedback go?
Your Module Organiser will receive your classes’ responses in the first instance and you will be sent their feedback via email.
Your Module Organiser then discusses your feedback with your course/programme director before your School/Institute reviews the results of all the modules running that semester. Around the same time your Student Voice Committee should also be able to discuss results with staff in your School/Institute.
