Amazing National Student Survey results for Faculty of Science, Business and Enterprise

The Faculty of Science, Business and Enterprise contains Chester Business School, the School for Computer and Engineering Sciences and the School of Natural Sciences. The Schools are based around our different campuses across Chester and the Faculty have worked hard to make sure that students have a positive experience on their courses.

This dedication to providing high-quality learning has been reflected in our most recent National Student Survey (NSS) results. The NSS gathers students’ opinions on the quality of their degrees, and they ask questions about what students have thought about the support and learning during their time at university. Each UK university takes part in the NSS, and the results are an important way for us to celebrate the great things about our faculty, as well as gather feedback to maintain a high standard of learning for our students. We thought we would go through some of the results highlights that are relevant to the fantastic degrees we offer across our schools at Chester.
