You Said, We Did

The Postgraduate Research Experience Survey (PRES) is an opportunity for Postgraduate Researchers to let us know what we do well and what can be improved. The results are collated and analysed to help shape both the Doctoral College and Faculty PGR action plans. We pass any feedback relating to services outside of the department on to support them in implementing any changes outside of our immediate remit. For some examples of the work we have done in response to your feedback in previous years, you can see below the impact that your voice has had by participating in the survey:
