The Advance HE Postgraduate Taught Experience Survey (PTES) has been running in the UK for 15 years (with a redesign in 2014) and is one of the main tools for the sector to understand the contemporary experience of taught postgraduates. The core of the survey is relatively stable but PTES continues to evolve in line with the needs of the sector. Changes made in 2024 were relatively small but include the addition of a question on the cost of living, in order to support the sector’s knowledge of the taught postgraduate student community.
This year's survey saw increased numbers of participants once again, with the highest ever number of participants (98,311) and the joint highest ever number of participating institutions (108), showing the enduring value of the survey to the sector.
