Student feedback

At the University of Aberdeen we care about what you think and encourage you to provide us feedback. We want to know your thoughts on your experiences at the University including teaching, assessment and the facilities. Once we have collected feedback we use it to try to improve your experience of university life. 

There are four keys ways the University collects your feedback:

• Student Course Evaluation Form (SCEF): an opportunity to provide written feedback on a specific course including both teaching and assessment aspects. 
• Class Representatives: responsible for listening & talking to the students in their class, representing their opinions and views to the University staff and passing information back to their colleagues and AUSA via the Staff - Student Liaison Committee.
• Student - Staff Liaison Committee (SSLC): attended by Class reps, School representatives and Heads of School and a platform for discussing student feedback.
• Institutional Student Survey (ISS): conducted on an annual basis, the ISS is an opportunity for you to provide feedback to the University on a variety of topics, to give opinions on what you like about your studies as well as the things you feel could be improved upon.

In addition to these internal methods for collectign feedback, if you are in your final year of study, we actively encourage you to complete the National Student Survey (NSS), which runs from the end of January to the end of April each year.
