Each year we ask all our students to complete student surveys to find out about your experience of studying at Bath. This is your opportunity to provide feedback about what you like and what you think we could improve. Your feedback helps us to continually develop and enhance our learning and teaching, our student services, and our campus facilities.

By giving us your opinions, you could win a prize. Prizes vary depending on the survey. Previous prizes have included: £250 cash, luxury afternoon tea at the Pump Rooms and a Thermae Bath Spa package. Find out more about the prizes, terms and conditions.

The NSS gives you the opportunity to voice your experience of your entire undergraduate course at Bath - both what you liked and what you think could be improved. Your feedback will be used to help shape the future for your fellow students. It is an influential, widely recognised and authoritative national survey that gives students a powerful collective voice.

The Course-level Survey replaces the United Kingdom Engagement Survey (UKES) that was piloted in 2024 in certain departments.
