The 2018 National Student Survey (NSS) results were published on Friday 27 July.
Students’ overall satisfaction with their course at the University of Nottingham for 2018 is 84%, down from 86% in 2017. This places us 11th in the Russell Group and joint 59th among all universities. We rank joint 68th among all institutions surveyed (which includes small and specialist providers).
10 subjects achieved an overall satisfaction rate of 90% or higher: Veterinary Medicine & Science (98%), Physics & Astronomy (96%), Electrical & Electronic Engineering (94%), Chemistry, Classics & Archaeology (both 93%), Civil Engineering (91%), Music, Philosophy, History and Pharmacy (all 90%).
Further analysis of the data will be undertaken over the next few weeks to help inform actions to maintain and improve the student experience at the University of Nottingham.
About the NSS
The annual survey is made up of 27 questions covering course teaching, learning opportunities, assessment and feedback, academic support, organisation and management, learning resources, learning community, student voice and student union. At the end of the survey students are asked to give their university an overall satisfaction score.
156 institutions have had their results published this year.
