Black Students' Experience Form

Black Students' Experience Form

As a Students' Union, it is our priority to represent all students and ensure that we are helping to create a better University experience for our students. Therefore, our Black Students Representative Christal Mattis is conducting some research on Black Student Experience at UCLan. We aim to gain insight into the experiences of UCLan students in and around campus.

All information collected from this survey will remain anonymous and confidential and once data collection has been completed all identifying information will be removed. This information will not be shared with third parties. For more information regarding this please read our privacy statement: https://www.uclansu.co.uk/dataprivacy/

Please note that we may touch upon some sensitive topics within this survey. If you feel personally affected by the topics or would like some further help and advice, please contact the UCLan Wellbeing Service at wellbeing@uclan.ac.uk or the Students’ Union Advice Centre at SAdvice@uclan.ac.uk.
