The Student Barometer survey gives Oxford students the chance to share their views on their University experience. Your feedback will be used by colleges, departments, faculties and central University services to identify strengths and weaknesses and put in place changes to help improve your experience at Oxford. A link to the Student Barometer has been sent from the Pro-Vice-Chancellor (Education) to all students. Please do take the time to complete it.
