Four out of five students have indicated they are satisfied with their education according to a recent national survey.
More than 206, 000 students were surveyed in the QUILT (Quality Indicators for Teaching and Learning) 2017 Student Experience Survey, showing that a majority of undergraduates (79 per cent) were satisfied with their higher educational experience, respectively 76 per cent of postgraduate students were also positive with their educational experience.
The 2017 survey was funded by the Australian Government as part of the Quality Indicators of Teaching and Learning (QILT) survey program.
Universities Australia Chief Executive Designate Catriona Jackson welcomed the results, saying there was good reason for students to be happy with the quality of education they received.
This year’s results confirm a long-standing trend, with student satisfaction remaining consistently high at around 80 per cent since the survey was first conducted in 2011.
We 100 per cent support QILT and the important work that it does. This survey gives students important information as they consider what and where to study,” Ms Jackson said.
