NSS Now Open for PAIS Finalists
The National Student Survey (NSS) is now open at the link below. In partnership with our students, we have built the PAIS department together. Thank you! We’d love your feedback on the three or four years you have spent with us, in PAIS.
TAKE THE SURVEY – DIRECT LINK TO COMPLETE THE NSS
Why else complete the survey?
As a thank you (and following student feedback) the following PAIS specific prizes are available (eligible finalists will be entered into a prize draw).
- 20 x £20 and 1 x £100 Love2Shop vouchers released once we hit a 50% response rate
- 20 x £20 and 1 x £100 Love2Shop vouchers released once we hit a 75% response rate
We’ll email you when we reach each threshold and, with their permission, let you know who the lucky winners are. The winners, if they wish, can ask for their prize fund to be donated to one of the University charity schemes instead. There is not a cash alternative available.
The PAIS scheme is in addition to the University prize draw. However, to clarify, PAIS finalists are eligible to win in both.
It will take just 10 minutes to complete. Your feedback matters and makes a huge difference to PAIS as shown on our You Said We Did page.

Professor Quassim Cassam Visits NYU Abu Dhabi as Distinguished Philosopher-in-Residence
Professor Quassim Cassam spent 7-11 November at NYU Abu Dhabi, visiting as their Distinguished Philosopher-in-Residence 2022. The university, which supports almost 3000 international undergraduate students, was built almost a decade ago and is located on a beautifully landscaped campus on Saadiyat Island, close to the spectacular Abu Dhabi Louvre. See here: Events - NYU Abu Dhabi
Professor Cassam says: “In my five days in Abu Dhabi, I participated in two research seminars on my work, two undergraduate classes on my book on Conspiracy Theories, and gave a public lecture on Extremism.

I also got to spend a day dune bashing in the desert (that is, driven up and down sand dunes at high speed). Silly but fun! The day in the desert ended with a climb (on foot!) up a steep dune to look at the sunset and dinner at a desert camp, with a belly dancer in attendance”.
