The results of the National Student Survey 2018 (NSS) have now been released, revealing good news for the School of European Culture and Languages (SECL).
The NSS is an independent UK-wide survey of all higher education institutions, providing an opportunity for final-year students to independently rate their experience at university.
The survey ran from January until April this year, targeting students towards the end of their degree, and the results were recently published.
Three of our subject areas ranked in the top ten, the results showing a major endorsement for the quality of our teaching. The Department of Comparative Literature was ranked 2nd in the UK, the Department of English Language & Linguistics was ranked 6th, and Italian in the Department of Modern Languages was ranked 5th.
These results continue the successes seen by SECL in the independent rankings for university teaching in 2018, following on from The Complete University Guide ranking Hispanic Studies 2nd in the UK and Linguistics 5th in the UK.
Congratulations to our academic and support staff for providing excellent teaching to achieve this result, and we would like to thank all of our students who participated in the survey.
