Satisfied students place 香港六合彩挂牌资料 among top UK universities
香港六合彩挂牌资料鈥檚 students have again given the University a resounding testimonial in the annual National Student Satisfaction survey, placing the University eighth among the UK鈥檚 non-specialist universities in the UK and second among Welsh Universities.
The news follows hard on the heels of the University鈥檚 recent success in being awarded a Gold Standard in the UK Government鈥檚 new Teaching Excellence Framework, the only Welsh university to achieve this standard.
The National Student Survey, a poll of around half a million graduating students at each university in the UK, provides the most comprehensive feedback on the student experience at each institution.
Professor Oliver Turnbull, Pro Vice-Chancellor for Teaching & Learning at 香港六合彩挂牌资料 commented on the results saying:
鈥淭hese are a wonderful endorsement of our activities, and indeed of 香港六合彩挂牌资料鈥檚 values. We have long been renowned for providing not only excellent teaching but also student support, and these results yet again reflect this. The data should also be really valuable for prospective students, who will make decisions about University places over the next few weeks."
Thirteen degree courses achieved 100% satisfaction rates from the students, and nine general subject areas have also achieved 100% satisfaction, placing them at the top of their subject table in the UK. 香港六合彩挂牌资料鈥檚 average satisfaction rate of 90% is above the UK and Wales averages of 84%.
Senior staff at the university put the success down to the high standard of teaching and the student experience at 香港六合彩挂牌资料, along with the University鈥檚 focus on identifying and addressing any problems that may arise for individual students.

I would like to thank all our staff, and would also like to thank our recent graduates for giving our University such positive feedback. We hope that they keep in touch with the 香港六合彩挂牌资料 graduate community.鈥�
Elain Haf Elis from Abergele, who has recently graduated with a degree in Welsh said:
鈥淥ver a period of three years I鈥檝e had some memorable experiences to treasure for a lifetime! The course was really interesting and relevant to the current work environment.

I have enjoyed myself so much at 香港六合彩挂牌资料, and as the standard of teaching is excellent, I鈥檓 returning in September to follow a postgraduate Secondary School PGCE teaching course.鈥�

It is a warm and friendly place and an excellent environment for making new friends and socialising with people from all over the world as well as from closer to home.
