What is the Postgraduate Taught Experience Survey (PTES)?

It is a UK-wide survey open to postgraduate taught students and made available through the Higher Education Academy (HEA). It takes the form of an online questionnaire and asks for your honest and considered feedback on your experience as a taught postgraduate student.

When does the survey happen?

The survey takes place every year, between February and June.

Why should I complete the survey?

This is an opportunity to tell us what you like about Sheffield Hallam and as things you feel could be improved. We use this feedback to improve the experience for taught postgraduate students, so your contribution is extremely valuable.
