een established to ensure that <strong>student</strong> concerns are heard. Class evaluations, discussed below, solicit feedback on<br />

<strong>student</strong>s’ academic experience. Student boards and councils focused on key areas of Career Management, and the<br />

overall MBA Program facilitate ongoing dialogue between <strong>student</strong>s and the administration. First-year faculty advisors<br />

also serve as liaisons to the Dean. Year-end satisfaction surveys allow for systematic analysis of <strong>student</strong> sentiment and<br />

enable the School’s administration to benchmark our program with competing MBA programs. In addition, the Dean<br />

welcomes <strong>student</strong>s to visit him in his office to discuss their ideas for the continued improvement of Simon Business<br />

School.<br />

Class Evaluations<br />

Students have the opportunity to provide feedback on teaching and curriculum through class evaluations administered<br />

prior to final exams. These evaluations are reviewed by the Senior Associate Dean for Faculty and Research and the<br />

Faculty Director of Graduate Programs and are shared with faculty after grades are submitted. Professors may also<br />

provide mid-term evaluations to <strong>student</strong>s in their classes for their own use in charting progress of the course. Students<br />

who have issues/concerns about a course or a professor are encouraged to discuss the matter with Office of Student<br />

Engagement or the Faculty Director of Graduate Programs prior to the evaluation process.<br />

Year-End Surveys<br />

Graduating <strong>student</strong>s have the opportunity to give comments and suggestions on their overall experience by completing<br />

a survey administered before graduation. Full-time first-year <strong>student</strong>s are also surveyed at the end of their first year of<br />

study.
