How am I feeling in my programme?
This is the main guiding question of the SRT. It can help you identify why you are satisfied or dissatisfied with your programme. Once you have identified the contributing factors, you can reflect upon which areas you can potentially actively influence.
How does this work?
Our own perception of situations can greatly differ from how other people see things. Therefore, you will receive feedback for each set of judgements comparing your responses with the average responses of other students. Furthermore, you can request information and suggestions on the various support and advising measures offered by the university.
How long does it take?
Completing the SRT takes between 15 and 25 minutes. You can interrupt the process after completion of a module and continue at a later point in time. Please make sure to save the respective TAN number. Once you have completed the SRT, you can use the TAN to access your feedback whenever you want.
Are the results conclusive?
The SRT is a scientifically assessed tool that was developed in cooperation with experts of various European universities as part of the Prevdrop project. The data comprise information on the current state of research on satisfaction within academic programmes as well as on factors that contribute to successful completion of academic programmes. An adapted version was created for Heidelberg University as part of the heiSTART project.
