Graduate Outcomes Survey
We will be in touch to remind you nearer the time, but this is a heads-up that you'll be contacted 15 months after your graduation by HESA (Higher Education Statistics Agency) to take part in the national Graduate Outcomes Survey. You may be contacted by email, phone or post.
The purpose of this survey is to find out what you've gone on to do since graduating from Newcastle University, and to hear your perspective on your time at the University. This information will be used to inform league tables and help us to understand how we can best support future generations of Newcastle graduates.
