2023 GLEQ KEY FINDINGS

The Graduate Learning Experience Questionnaire (GLEQ), conducted regularly by HKU, invites graduates who have obtained their Bachelor’s degrees from the University to reflect on their learning experiences during their time at the University. In the 2023 survey, a total of 1,171 HKU graduates from the 2018 cohort and 1,372 graduates from the 2022 cohort participated in the exercise.

Highlights of Findings

  • Over half of the respondents agreed or strongly agreed with all aspects of their perceived attainment of the University Educational Aims. Notably, more than 89% of graduates from both cohorts responded positively regarding their attainment in Pursuit of academic / professional excellence, critical intellectual inquiry and life-long learning and Communication and collaboration (Figure 1).
  • Longitudinal tracking of respondents who completed the student learning experience surveys both during and after their University studies indicated that the perceived attainment of the University Education Aims — Pursuit of academic / professional excellence, critical intellectual inquiry and life-long learning, Tackling novel situations and ill-defined problems, and Communication and collaboration — continued to increase after graduation (Figure 2).
  • Three key themes emerged from respondents’ perceptions of the most valuable aspects of their University learning experience, including the concepts related to “interpersonal, communication, and skills”, “different, cultural, and backgrounds”, and “professional, and knowledge” (Figure 3).

Detailed results at the institutional, Faculty, and curriculum levels are made available to Faculties to support the review and enhancement of their teaching and learning processes. Please refer to the information here.
