Tell us about your ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº experience ‘In Focus’

¹û¶³Ó°Ôº is always looking at ways to improve the student experience. We are working with external partners to better understand students' journeys on ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº undergraduate and master’s programmes.

We are running a competition – ‘¹û¶³Ó°Ôº in Focus’ – to explore what works well and where we might improve the ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº student experience.Ìý

From induction right through to examinations and finishing your course, we want to better understand your first-hand experience. This could include parts of your commute, how you engage with various ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº services, your student life and how well each of these experiences works for you.

The best submissions will be presented to senior ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº staff, so it’s a great way to get your views on your experience at ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº heard and help improve the student journey.Ìý

We want to hear from as many students as possible from right across ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº – your experience at ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº matters to us.

Prizes for best submission in each category

There are two categories:

  1. ÌýPhoto submission: Submit a photo series of between five–20 photos that showcase your experience at ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº including how you engage with ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº services. You may provide accompanying text or annotate your photos.
  2. Video submission: Submit a video no longer than threeÌýminutes that showcases your experience at ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº including how you engage with ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº services. You may provide accompanying text or annotate your video.

Representatives from our external partners will judge submissions on:

  • How well the submission has captured the experience of being a ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº student/using ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº services and communicated this in a clear and accessible way;
  • How well the submission has communicated what works well/what could be improved about the ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº experience;
  • Creativity in the presentation of photos or videos.

Winners will be selected based on a skills-based assessment against the above selection criteria when the competition closes. One winner for each category will receive a £100 voucher, and one runner up for each category will receive a £50 voucher.
