Student survey continues DUSA run of success

Dundee University Students Association has continued an amazing run of success after it was judged the highest rated in Scotland in the latest National Student Survey.

The NSS results also placed the University joint second in Scotland in terms of overall satisfaction.

Dundee's 'union' was the only Scottish representative in the UK top ten when students were asked if they agreed with the statement 'I am satisfied with the Students Union at my institution'.

"The latest results of the National Student Survey are another excellent result for DUSA," said Iain Kennedy, President of Dundee University Students Association.

"Perhaps the most visible part of DUSA is our popular night time events, but we have worked incredibly hard to make sure there is a lot more on offer. With over 80 societies, student welfare campaigns throughout the year and close links with the Universities advice and support team we are able to cater for all students in all matters of life on campus. We benefit from an excellent representation structure which ensures that student opinion is heard across the University."

Dundee University Students Association was recently judged the best in the UK in a Which? University survey, adding to a run of accolades for both DUSA itself and student life at the University.

Dundee was named top in the UK in this year's Times Higher Education Student Experience Survey, performing highly right across the board on everything from accommodation to nightlife, and sports facilities to teaching quality.
