What is the Student Experience Survey?

The Student Experience Survey 2022 - 2023 is now closed and the data is currently being analysed. 

The Student Experience Survey is an annual survey of Imperial students which aims to gather feedback on a range of College services and on Imperial College Union. The survey seeks to understand students’ opinions on life at Imperial beyond lecture theatres or labs.

For past results please visit the Previous surveys webpage. The SES 21-22 Final Report and SES 21/22 Question List are availible online.

Who is the survey for?

The 2022/23 survey was open to all non-final year undergraduate students and all postgraduate taught students.

Final year undergraduates were not included as they were asked to complete the National Student Survey (NSS).

Postgraduate research students were not included as they will be asked to complete the Postgraduate Research Experience Survey. 

Why do we run the Student Experience Survey?

The survey gives students an opportunity to let us know how their time at Imperial is going, how we're doing and what we could better. The higher the response rate to the survey the more effectively it can be used to make changes.

How are responses protected?

Students could choose not to provide a response to any question in the survey, all information provided is processed in accordance with the College's Privacy Notice for Students and Prospective Students and Data Protection Policy.
