Last update date: 2020-08-18 00:50The University Grants Committee earlier disclosed the "University Accountability Agreement", which collected survey data on teaching and learning performance from eight funded universities. City University's scores in the two student ratings of "teaching experience" and "overall learning environment" are lower than last year, ranking last in the eighth largest (eight government-funded universities). In the 2018/19 academic year, the number of unemployed graduates from the eight funded universities reached 432, a 10-year high. Among them, the unemployment rate of CityU graduates reached 5.2%, which was double the previous year and the highest among the eight universities.
City University issued a notice today (17th) to all teachers and students, in response to the statement that the teaching and learning performance survey data published in the "University Accountability Agreement" were submitted by each university to the UGC, and the time for each university to conduct the survey is different. The design of the questionnaire is different, and the response rate is also significantly different. CityU believes that the survey data of various institutions should not be directly compared.
