The table presents the percentages of a survey conducted among first year university students, who rated five different aspects of their courses as “very good” across three fields of studies: Economics, Law, and Commerce. Overall, students pursuing commerce expressed the highest level of satisfaction across all categories, while the rating for Law and Economics varied. Teaching and tutoring accounted for the largest share, whereas the reverse was true for pre-courses information.
Focusing first on teaching and support, both Commerce and Economics students rated teaching quality at a high level, at 95%, followed closely by tutor support at 93% and 90% respectively. In contrast the figures for teaching quality for those who studied Law was considerably lower at 62%, though 76% of students gave a high rating for tutor support.
When it comes to pre-courses, information and other resources, Commerce repeatedly led with the highest figures in all three categories: 95% for pre-courses information, 86% for print resources, and 81% for other resources. Law students depicted moderate satisfaction, with 72% for pre-course information, 70% for print resources, and a relatively higher rating for other resources at 80%. Economics, however, accounted for the smallest share, pre-courses at 59%, and for other resources at 69%.
