Hello there,
My DS is interested in the general engineering degree at Durham. But when you compare courses on the unistats website, their student satisfaction rates are a bit concerning. I know student satisfaction surveys have their own limitations but it really stands out that Durham’s satisfaction ratings tend to be in the high 60s while the other university courses he looked at are rated in high 80s or even 90s (Cambridge & Warwick for general engineering, plus Nottingham).
If it was just “oh student satisfaction surveys are overly negative” wouldn’t all universities get similar type results? Have heard that LSE students almost pride themselves on poor satisfaction survey results. Is this true of Durham? Or is it a marmite type of university? Or is something else going on.
DS is going to the open day this weekend so can get a feel for the place himself but I would be interested to hear what anyone else thinks
