What is The Big 6 ?
The Big Six are our student feedback surveys, that run for 2 weeks between 24th November and 8th December. It comprises of 6 small surveys (ironic when we call them the BIG six eh?!) and each one takes between 4 and 5 minutes to complete. Basically, we're asking for you to give us anonymous feedback on what it's like to be a student, at Heriot-Watt, right now in 2025, so we can make sure we're improving what we do for you.
The results of The Big Six help us to improve on a smaller scale; department by department, as well as allowing us to plan at an organisational level.
The Big Six is an outlet for YOUR feedback; we want you to tell us how things really are so we can work towards our goal: putting students first, always.
We need as many students to complete The Big Six as possible so we can understand Heriot-Watt as a whole. This includes all 3 Campuses globally and all levels of study.
