Graduate Outcomes Survey

The Graduate Outcomes Survey tells us how UWE Bristol graduates’ careers are progressing once they have left the University. The survey is managed by the Higher Education Statistics Agency (HESA).

Why you should take part

  • The survey aims to find out your activities and views. The results shape our courses and help future students make choices about their education.
  • The survey allows policy makers, charities, journalists and researchers to understand the higher education sector and the state of the graduate labour market.
  • The results of the survey attract graduate recruiters and impact student recruitment through their contribution towards league table rankings.

What you need to do

Make sure we have the right contact details for you. HESA will ask us to provide them with contact details for you so that they can get in touch about the survey. Your email is most important, but the right phone numbers and an address are also useful.

Please update your contact details by following the correct link:

Current students: update your details in MYUWE.

Graduands and graduates who’ve left UWE Bristol: update your details.
