Online Unit Evaluations (OUEs) are open each semester. OUEs give you the opportunity to provide anonymous feedback on what is going well on your units and how the units can be improved.
Each OUE takes approximately 5 minutes to complete and can be performed on a PC or any mobile device. Find out more about OUE opening and closing dates, the questions and how to provide constructive feedback.
You can view your department's Semester 1 and 2 response rates in the league tables below. Getting a high response rate means that the results more accurately represent the views of the cohort and your Unit Convenor or Director of Studies must formally respond to your feedback. Your Unit Convenor or Director of Studies should talk to you about the results even if the response rate is low.
