Allensbach University is kununu’s Top Company for the second time in a row

After 2026, the Allensbach Hochschule Konstanz will also receive the Top Company seal from the employer evaluation platform kununu for 2027. The award is based solely on employee ratings.

Awarded by their own employees

Following the Top Company label in 2026, the state-accredited private university also meets the criteria for 2027. kununu awards the label to employers who are particularly positively evaluated by their employees over an extended period. According to kununu, around five percent of all employer profiles qualify.

For 2027, there must be at least eight employee reviews since the profile was created. The kununu score must reach at least 3.8 out of five stars; at the same time, an average employee score of at least 3.8 stars is required for the past twelve months.

„We are very pleased to receive this award again. The reviews come from people who know the university from their daily work and who independently describe their experiences on kununu. For us, this feedback is particularly valuable because the quality of our work depends significantly on how well the collaboration within the university works.“ – Timo Keppler, Chancellor of the Allensbach University

Good cooperation, which the students feel

For universities, the perception as an employer is of immediate importance for the academic operation. Lecturers develop and convey study content, supervise scientific work, and answer technical questions. In administration and study counseling, the course progression is organized and the students’ concerns are addressed.

Especially at a digital distance learning university, these areas must work closely together, because the majority of contact with students takes place online. The Bachelor’s and Master’s degree programs as well as the academic continuing education courses of the Allensbach University are geared towards part-time distance learning: lectures take place online and are recorded, study materials are available digitally, and teachers and student advisors are available to help with questions.

„A distance university requires reliable cooperation. When faculty members, student advisors, and administration coordinate their tasks well, students notice this in their daily study activities as well. Therefore, we see the renewed Top Company award as a recognition for the colleagues who are involved in developing and implementing our study programs.“ – Timo Keppler
