Safety report
If you have experience of a deviation, observation, near-miss related to Laurea’s operations, or if you have an idea to improve our shared safety, make a safety report.
Idea for improving the implementation of a course/project or for developing your studies
If you have an idea or ideas for developing your course or project studies, or your studies in general:
- Raise the matter with the course teacher/project supervisor.
- You can also provide course feedback on your studies. You can give interim feedback during the course and final feedback at the end of the course.
- If you cannot establish contact with the teacher/supervisor or your feedback is not responded to, you can, if necessary, contact that person’s supervisor. You can find the supervisor by typing the teacher’s name into the people search on the student intranet front page. After typing the teacher’s name, click the magnifying glass and then the person’s name to see the supervisor information.
- You can also give feedback at any time about anything related to your studies via Laureamko’s Vox Box.
Handling problems related to the supervisory relationship
If you are dissatisfied with the supervisory relationship between you and your teacher/tutor:
- Raise the matter with the person concerned and try to resolve it together through discussion.
- If you cannot reach the teacher/supervisor, you can contact their supervisor. You can find the supervisor as described above via the intranet people search. If necessary, you can seek support from the head of the higher education unit or a person appointed by them.
- Read the degree regulations.
