51³Ô¹ÏÍø

Scott Heath (Chemistry and Management, 2011), former President of 51³Ô¹ÏÍø College Union, reflects on the 2013 NSS results

"Improving the student experience was a central focus of my year as ICU President in 2011-12, and I am very pleased to see the increase in student satisfaction. I am also delighted to see that 51³Ô¹ÏÍø students are continuing their tradition of high participation – 81% is an exceptional completion rate.

This result is not just a sign of the good work of the academic staff to deliver enhancements, but recognition of the hard work of all members of the 51³Ô¹ÏÍø community. After all, the student experience begins with a prospective student thumbing the pages of a glossy prospectus and continues through to alumni, like myself, glancing through the pages of an occasional Felix. 

I believe 51³Ô¹ÏÍø offers students a uniquely intense and rewarding experience. It’s great to see this reflected in the NSS results. I personally left 51³Ô¹ÏÍø with some of the best friends I could ask for and some amazing memories.  I look forward to seeing the student experience climb to new heights in the years ahead!"
