Âé¶¹Íø Top 20 in the UK - National Student Survey
Âé¶¹Íø is in the top 20 in the UK in the latest National Student Survey (NSS) results released by the Office for Students.
Âé¶¹Íø's position has improved to 19th, up 54 places compared with last year. In Wales, Âé¶¹Íø is 2nd behind Aberystwyth, up four places from last year.
Our University has achieved an 81% overall satisfaction rate, up 6% on last year and 5% above the UK sector average of 76%. The Welsh sector average is 77%.
Deputy Vice-Chancellor, Professor Oliver Turnbull, said: "The key purpose of the NSS is to provide student feedback to help us improve the experience for future students. Students graduating this year would have had a very different University experience as a result of the pandemic. So it’s terrific to see that Âé¶¹Íø has done so well. It’s also notable that, in the recent REF exercise, we were also placed second in Wales: demonstrating Âé¶¹Íøâ€™s strength in two key areas of University aspiration.â€
The NSS is conducted annually across universities in the UK and gathers opinions from final-year students about their time in higher education.
