The team at Staffordshire University is delighted to share the recent results from The Times and The Sunday Times Good University Guide 2018.
We have been named among the top ten Universities for teaching quality- a fantastic achievement of which we are immensely proud! Joint 63rd overall, the University was highest climber in the League Tables published on September 24 - up 29 places! The University has also beaten Midlands universities including Birmingham, Warwick and Coventry for teaching quality as measured by the National Student Satisfaction survey.
Staffordshire University Vice-Chancellor Professor Liz Barnes said she was delighted with the news, adding; "This reflects the great work we are doing to give students the best possible experience. We invite prospective students to sign up to an open day so we can show them what a brilliant and friendly institution we are."
"The announcement builds on being awarded Silver in the government's Teaching Excellence Framework, excellent employability as measured through the Destination of Leavers from Higher Education survey and our recent nomination for the THE Awards 'Most Improved Student Experience'.”
The new edition of The Times and The Sunday Times Good University Guide 2018 is published over three days, beginning with a free 96-page supplement published in The Sunday Times (September 24).
