To assess and improve the quality of studies, there has been established a survey system in the University of Latvia – it envisages regular clarification of students' views and satisfaction levels, as well as its use in the improvement of the internal quality management system of studies. Within the framework of the survey system, a regular survey on the quality of the content of study courses and the work of the teaching staff is held every semester. In the first year of college, bachelor's and master's studies, students fill in a survey on the beginning of studies, while at the end of all levels of studies - a survey about their study experience. Other surveys are also conducted to evaluate the study process. Centrally organized, regular surveys of students are conducted in the Information System of the University of Latvia (LUIS). To obtain representative results in the surveys, participation in regular surveys is mandatory for students. Read more about the survey system
