Students attest to the high quality of Allensbach University

Allensbach University regularly conducts student surveys. The assessment of the quality of studies is consistently positive. The quality of supervision and flexibility are also highlighted.

Quality and benefits: This is what students are looking for when choosing a degree course and university. In order to measure their own perceptions and make improvements based on practical experience, Allensbach University once again wanted to find out from its students how they rate studying at the fully digitalized distance learning university, where they see room for improvement and where they see the most added value for their personal development. Around a quarter of students took part in the survey, which was conducted in December 2020. For 95 percent of students, their studies met their expectations, and just as many would recommend their studies at Allensbach University to friends or acquaintances.

Students consider the focus at Allensbach University on the topics of HR management and leadership, finance and digitalization as well as pedagogical modules to be particularly relevant from a technical and professional perspective. Students see particular benefits of the degree program in a higher salary, a higher position and higher quality work. Other benefits cited include career security, the acquisition of knowledge and additional qualifications.

Students of the Business Pedagogicswho participated very actively in the survey are naturally particularly keen to enter the teaching profession. They find many career opportunities through their studies, for example as a vocational school teacher or as a teacher at business high schools or in personnel development and adult education. Business Education is an interdisciplinary course that combines the content of economics with sound pedagogical qualifications. Allensbach University is currently the only university in Germany to offer a distance learning Master's degree in Business Education.

High flexibility and good support

The flexibility and good support from the student advisory service and the lecturers, professors and seminar supervisors are named as the most important plus points for the degree program. Equally important to students are business management thinking, open communication, specialist knowledge taught and accessibility. The compatibility of work and studies and a good price-performance ratio are also emphasized.

Successful corona management

The current survey also focused on the handling of the coronavirus situation. 96% of students rated the university's coronavirus management as good or very good. Thanks to an immediate switch to alternative examination formats, it was possible to continue studying without interruption and without restrictions.

We are delighted with these good results from the survey and will now take the right steps to maintain the established quality and improve it even further in certain areas. We will align the content even more closely with practice and further optimize the digital course offerings.
