The Barometer of Alumni Sentiment gives a comprehensive picture of how positively disposed alumni are towards their university.
It identifies alumni sentiment across a wide range of relationship indicators, picking up on factors shown to be critical to institutional support.
The Barometer is a survey sent by each institution to their own alumni, with all the backroom detail of design and set up, data collection and analysis taken care of.
