The satisfaction of postgraduate taught students in the UK is decidedly higher among international students than domestic students, a report has indicated.
Advance HE, a member-led charity for higher education providers, released its annual Postgraduate Taught Experience Survey with nearly 84,000 responses from across 101 HEIs, and the results showed mixed reviews for international students.
The author said that one out of 10 overseas postgraduate taught students are more positive than those that are UK domiciled.
When looking at satisfaction in various areas – resources, teaching, engagement, assessment and organisation – non-EU domiciled students’ satisfaction was trending higher in every category. For example, in resources, UK students reported 87% satisfaction; non-EU students reported 93%.
