Welcome! Oxford University Computing Services, in collaboration with local IT staff, offers a range of technology services to support students and staff in their work. The findings of this survey will further our understanding about what you think of OUCS and help improve the way our services are delivered in the future.

It is important that we get as many replies as possible, representing the full range of users of OUCS's services. Please do reply from your own perspective, therefore, and not on behalf of your entire department or college.

The survey is divided into 11 questions, all of which are optional. However, we encourage you to respond to as many as you can. The survey should take you between 2 and 5 minutes to complete.
