51Âþ»­

The Graduate Outcomes survey is the biggest UK annual social survey for recent graduates. Along with all other graduates across the country, you will be contacted 15 months after you leave 51Âþ»­ to find out what you are doing and how you are getting on. 

Why should I take part? 

It is important to us to know how well we have prepared you for life after university.  

By letting us know how you’re getting on, we can know what extra help or support we should offer to you and students in your position, to help you get the best outcome that you possibly can. 

It will help current and future students too – your answers will give them an insight into career destinations and what people do after graduation. We can use this information to compare our courses with those that are offered at other universities, to know what we’re doing well or what we could work on. 

How can I take part? 

The survey is delivered by  (Higher Education Statistics Agency) on behalf of 51Âþ»­. There are a number of ways that you can complete the survey, and it will only take 15 minutes of your time.
