Last year, more than 42,000 students have rated their university and studies using the platform Studycheck. The current ranking was compiled on the basis of all received votes submitted in 2018. Since the platform came into existence in 2013, the KU has received over 520 ratings and 93 per cent stated that they would recommend studying at the KU to their peers. The average rating for the KU were four out of five starts.
The results of the current Studycheck ranking are in line with other surveys which have regularly confirmed the KU’s excellent reputation among students and alumni for years. Last year, for example, more than 1,300 former KU students participated in the Bavarian graduate survey (Bayerische Absolventenstudie), for which the Bavarian State Institute for Higher Education Research and Planning interviewed more than 25,000 alumni. 75 per cent stated that they were very satisfied with the advice and support during their studies at the KU, while the total average of all participants who stated to be very satisfied with their university was significantly lower with only 58 per cent. Furthermore, KU graduates praised that the KU offered an excellent range of opportunities for obtaining core skills and that the KU placed great importance on establishing close links between theory and practice.
