Speak up!

Do you have positive or negative feedback about the quality of education at the UiT? Speak up!

In order for UiT to be able to maintain and improve our studies, we need feedback related to how you as a student experience the quality of our education and learning environment. You can provide feedback in connection with the evaluation of courses and study programs or by contacting the head of the study program, the department or the faculty. If you do not wish to contact any of these directly, you may let us know here.

Please let us know if you feel there is scope for improvement

Let us know if you think there are aspects associated with our education that you consider require improvements. For example, there may be deficiencies related to the social or physical learning environment, the quality of teaching and learning activities, the administration of studies, etc.

Contact your study programme/faculty or send an email to verena.woltering@uit.no or oyvind.h.mikalsen@uit.no in the Office for Educational Quality and Learning Environments.

The Department of Research, Education and Dissemination (FUF) is the recipient of your request. Your request will only be read by a limited number of employees. FUF will not reveal your identity through the follow-up of the case if you wish.

Report incidents/conditions that have caused or could have caused harm to people, materials, or the external environment.

This may be for example:

Injuries and spills involving chemicals Fire/fire outbreaks Obstacles in and blocked escape routes Unacceptable behaviour Personal injuries and work-related illnesses

Do not provide names or other personal information if the incident involves individuals.

You can report HSE non-conformance here.

UiT encourages you to report if you experience or observe bullying, sexual harassment, discrimination, or other serious incidents.

When you submit a report, it will be received by a team consisting of staff from the study administration and human resources. The team will ensure that the report is followed up and that you, as the whistleblower, are taken care of.
