Student Representatives

In synergy with faculty and the management of affiliated healthcare structures, they ensure the effective functioning of the quality system. Their role in the institutional bodies is essential to ensuring transparency, shared governance, and the quality of the educational experience.

Student Opinions

Student opinions are a central tool for evaluating the quality of teaching.

They are collected via an anonymous 15-question questionnaire divided into three sections:

  • Teaching organisation
  • Teaching activities
  • Overall satisfaction

The questionnaire can be completed online through the university’s e-learning platform and is accessible to all enrolled students. Results are analysed at the levels of teacher, course, and Degree Programme, and are available via the Academic Performance System (APS).

As detailed in the relevant Guidelines, the Quality Office has also activated a dedicated channel for reporting issues, suggestions, or complaints: you can write to qualityoffice@hunimed.eu. Communications are reviewed and, if necessary, forwarded to relevant offices for potential corrective actions.
