Early Semester Student Feedback Survey (ESSFS) and Student Evaluation on Teaching and Units (SETU)

The Early Semester Student Feedback Survey (ESSFS) is an online unit evaluation survey administered in Week 4 of each semester to units at Monash University Malaysia. ESSFS complements the Student Evaluation of Teaching and Units (SETU), which occurs at the end of the semester.

It will only take 3-5 minutes to complete it! This will impact much on your further unit learning experience.

Do you know filling up the form enters you into a lucky draw?
A friend won a 50-inch TV through ESSFS & SETU lucky draw entries!

When is ESSFS in 2024?

Semester 1, 2024
Survey open date: 18 – 29 March

Semester 2, 2024
Survey open date: 12 – 23 August
