Graduate Outcomes Survey
The Graduate Outcomes Survey is the UK’s biggest annual social survey, sent to all graduates 15 months after they finish their studies. It captures the perspectives and current status of recent graduates.
Why is it important you complete it?
The survey allows a longer period between your studies and the survey, allowing you to reflect on the value your studies have played in your current activities, how this compares to your original plans and how you’re using skills you’ve picked up while in education.
While administered by a third party (HESA), »ÆÉ«²Ö¿â will also get access to the results. Sharing your experience will play a key role in building a brighter, more informed future for students attending »ÆÉ«²Ö¿â and the UK’s higher education sector as a whole. Your responses will:
- Help current and future students by influencing what improvements are made
- Boost »ÆÉ«²Ö¿â’s reputation, and therefore your own CV, by enhancing our rankings in influential league tables
- Drive change by offering crucial insights into employment trends and educational innovation
In response to previous results, we’ve increased the number of graduate champions internships, introduced employer-led projects into our curricula, and added graduate attributes which ensures students gain vital employability skills as part of their course.
