WHAT IS THE BIG ASK?

The Big Ask is our annual student satisfaction survey that runs for 3 weeks between 23/11 - 13/12. It takes about 10 minutes to complete, and it gives you the opportunity to provide anonymous feedback to help us improve what we do for you.

This is the 5th year we've run it, and It allows us to benchmark how the Student Union is doing by comparing the results in key areas to previous years.

The results of The Big Ask help us to improve on a smaller scale; department by department, as well as allowing us to plan at an organisational level.

The Big Ask is an outlet for YOUR feedback; we want you to tell us where you have seen us improve and where you think we can do better as we work towards our goal: Putting students first, always. 

We need as many students to complete The Big Ask as possible so we can understand Heriot-Watt as a whole. This includes all 3 UK campuses and all levels of study.

If we don’t ask YOU how we are doing, we will never know if we are putting students first.

WHAT IF YOU WANT TO REMAIN 100% ANONYMOUS?

We use Survey Monkey because it allows us to keep all responses anonymous – we want students to feel comfortable giving us honest, open feedback, regardless of how involved they are with the Union.

We ask for your student number at the beginning of the survey as a means of identifying you for the prize draw only. However, this field is not required, nor is it included when we analyse the data after the survey closes. So, you can skip this if you would prefer!
