SCORING WELL ON SATISFACTION The 2017 Postgraduate Taught Experience Survey placed LJMU in the top 25% of Higher Education Institutions in almost every category.
Assessment and feedback were also higher than average, with fairness of marking and promptness of feedback scoring particularly well. Satisfaction with library resources came in at an impressive 90% and access to IT resources scored an excellent 92%.
Our overall satisfaction rate was 87% some 5% higher than the sector average. The University’s results were also significantly above the sector average for course challenge, workload manageability and opportunities to give feedback on the learning experience.
This year’s Postgraduate Taught Experience Survey (PTES) is open until 15 June. LJMU will make a charity donation of £1 for every survey completed.
IT’S GREAT TO BE GREEN “As a modern civic university, awareness of sustainability issues, alongside demonstrating a commitment to environmental responsibility is essential,” says Professor Phil Vickerman, Pro-Vice-Chancellor for Strategic Initiatives and Senior Lead for Estates. “This award recognises our success, and comes on the back of a recent BriteGreen award placing LJMU in the top 10 UK universities for carbon reduction.”
LJMU has been named one of the UK’s top 25 green universities. The 2017 UI GreenMetric World University Rankings measure commitment to developing an ‘environmentally friendly’ infrastructure. The rankings are based on: setting and infrastructure, energy and climate change, waste, water, transportation and education.
