National Student Survey results announced
Once again, Tio University of Applied Sciences has earned fantastic scores on the National Student Survey (NSE). In this annual survey, students at universities of applied sciences and research universities share their opinions on various aspects of their study programmes. Tio students give particularly high marks to the content of their study programmes, the skills they are being taught, the lecturers from professional practice and the pleasant atmosphere.
Satisfaction with the study programme
Are you satisfied with your study programme? Do you feel like the lecturers are doing a good job? Are the study facilities up to scratch? And what’s the atmosphere like? Students who took part in the NSE answered these questions and more. The results will help prospective students gain an honest impression of the study programme, as well as letting educators know where improvement is needed. Students at Tio completed the survey, too.
