IOP and RSB accreditation: student feedback evidence map
What physics and bioscience accreditation panels look for on student voice
A map of what the Institute of Physics and the Royal Society of Biology look for on student voice in degree accreditation, next to the course evaluation evidence that answers each point. It is for physics and bioscience departments preparing a submission or a site visit. Use it to plan interview questions for each key expectation or learning outcome. Koji supplies themes, quotes and recommended actions; the record of what changed stays in your own QA process.
What's in this reference table
| What the panel looks for | Body | Evidence Koji can supply |
|---|---|---|
| Students actively asked to raise curriculum concerns | IOP | Open interviews each term, with follow-up questions on what is unclear or not working |
| Student feedback as evidence that key expectations are met | IOP | Themes with supporting quotes for each question, ready to cite in the submission |
| A clear commitment to equality, diversity and inclusion | IOP | The same moderation for every student, with interviews in 28 languages |
| Panel speaks to students and recent graduates | RSB | A theme summary you can check against what students will say in the room |
| Evidence that programmes meet the learning outcomes | RSB | Questions written for each outcome, each with its own thematic summary and quotes |
| Substantial research experience in advanced degrees | RSB | Interviews with final-year students about their project and lab experience |
| A documented response to student feedback | Both | Recommended actions tied to quotes; your action plan records what was done |
| Continued compliance during the accreditation period | Both | The same questions asked each year, so evidence lines up across cohorts |
