Student, faculty, curriculum, alumni and employer feedback in one place

Bharat Survey works as a college feedback management system for IQAC coordinators and principals who need feedback that is complete, anonymous and easy to act on. Students answer in supervised sessions on institution-owned Android phones or tablets. Alumni and employer responses are recorded by staff. Results arrive as programme-wise and course-wise summaries, not a spreadsheet of names.

  • Student, faculty, curriculum, alumni and employer forms
  • Anonymous student rounds, no roll numbers stored
  • Hindi and English versions of every form
  • Exports to Excel and PDF for IQAC files

Five stakeholder groups

Accreditation reviewers look for feedback that is collected, analysed and acted on. That means more than one survey a year.

Students

Curriculum feedback survey college departments can act on

Short course-level forms on syllabus relevance, pace, practical work and assessment, run at the end of each semester and reported by programme so the board of studies sees patterns.

  • Per course, not per teacher
  • Open comments grouped by theme

Faculty

UGC faculty appraisal student feedback, handled carefully

Teacher-level items on preparation, clarity and accessibility, reported as aggregated scores. We advise sharing teacher-level results only where enough students responded, so no one can be identified.

Alumni

Alumni feedback survey format that gets answered

Eight to twelve questions on how well the programme prepared graduates for work or further study, recorded by staff during alumni meets or phone calls.

  • Batch and programme fields
  • Consent recorded
Employers

Employer feedback survey college placement cells can run

Recruiters rate graduates on skills the curriculum claims to build. Placement staff fill it during campus drives or follow-up calls.

Our view

Decision aid

Both approaches are legitimate. Bharat Survey supports the second; version 1 does not send self-completion links.

Before

Online link

Students answer on their own phones

  • Easy to send to every student
  • Response rates often fall after the first semester
  • Friends can fill forms for each other
  • Works well for very large universities
  • Needs a web survey tool, not a field app
With Bharat Survey

Supervised session

Students answer on institution devices in class or lab

  • Near-complete response from those present
  • No login, no roll number on the record
  • Faculty member being rated leaves the room
  • Duration check flags rushed forms
  • Works without campus Wi-Fi
A semester round

01

Pick the forms

Start from course, teacher and curriculum templates. Adjust items with your IQAC committee and publish a version for the semester.
IQAC
02

Schedule sessions

Allocate one period per section. A coordinator, not the course teacher, runs the session with three or four devices per room.
Departments
03

Collect anonymously

Each device opens a fresh form per student. Course and section are chosen from lists; nothing identifies the student.

Review and act

Programme-wise summaries go to heads of department. Actions taken are recorded for the next IQAC meeting.

Regulation

Requirements differ by the type of institution, the affiliating university and the purpose of the feedback. NAAC's assessment framework asks institutions about structured feedback on the curriculum from stakeholders such as students, teachers, employers and alumni, and about how that feedback is analysed and acted on. UGC regulations and university statutes set their own expectations for teacher assessment. Read the current documents for your institution rather than a vendor's summary, including ours.

University survey software needs more than a form

A university runs dozens of affiliated or constituent units. It needs one set of templates, results that roll up from department to faculty to campus, and access that lets a principal see their college and not the next one. Bharat Survey's account structure supports that with admins, supervisors and read-only viewers.

Research use

Departments sometimes ask whether the same tools work as a university research survey platform for student or faculty projects. For field studies with enumerators, households and districts, yes. For online questionnaires sent to large respondent lists, a web survey tool will suit better.

School survey app for parents and teachers

Schools
Parent-teacher meetings are the best moment for parent feedback. Staff open the form on a phone and parents answer in Hindi or English.

Student survey app for schools with shared devices

Classrooms
Older students answer anonymous forms on a few shared devices during a free period, with a teacher present who is not being rated.

Not the right fit if

  • You want to email or WhatsApp a link to every student
  • You need the official NAAC SSS submitted on students' behalf (no one should)
  • Students must use iPhones or laptops
  • You want individual student responses linked to roll numbers

A good fit if

  • You need high response rates in every section
  • Feedback must be anonymous and defensible
  • Your campus Wi-Fi is unreliable
  • You also collect alumni, employer and parent feedback
FAQ

Straight answers to the questions people ask most about this topic.

Is student feedback really anonymous?

Yes, in the way we set it up. The student form stores course, section and answers, but no name, roll number or phone number. For small classes, we suggest reporting teacher-level results only at programme level, so individual students cannot be singled out.

Do students need their own smartphones?

No. Sessions run on a few institution-owned Android phones or tablets passed around the room. Each device starts a fresh form for every student. The app works offline, so the session does not depend on campus Wi-Fi.

Can we send a feedback link to students instead?

Not in version 1. Bharat Survey does not send self-completion web links. If your institution prefers online links for every student, use a web form tool and keep our system for alumni, employer and supervised rounds, or ask us about timelines.

Can results go into our NAAC or NBA documentation?

You can export summaries to Excel and PDF and use them in your own documentation. Bharat Survey does not submit anything to NAAC, NBA or UGC portals, and it does not guarantee any grade or score.
