Speak up about tuition and educational quality

UiB's aim is for all students to thrive - from sponsor week to the diploma ceremony.

Therefore, we work systematically to maintain and improve the quality of the studies. We want feedback about the academic-pedagogical learning environment from you as a student.

In many cases, it is more appropriate to solve the problem locally. You can then contact the head of the study programme, department or faculty, or directly with your lecturer.

Examples of topics that could be suitable for local feedback could be:

• Bibliography

• Teaching pedagogy

• Teaching content

• Seminar/group work

If you wish to report problems with the building, room or outdoor environment, this can be done here.

If you find it problematic to report locally because the relationship is serious, or you are worried about possible negative consequences, you can report in the "Speak up" system. 

Here you can speak up about teaching and education quality:

• Speak up about tuition and educational quality.

The UiB takes you seriously

• We would like you to speak out if you have discovered any questionable practices that might be detrimental to the UiB or any individuals at the UiB. Cases relating to questionable practices shall protect you as a student and ensure that your report will be dealt with.
   
• What happens when you have reported something? All sensitive documents relating to the matter are exempt from public disclosure and cases will be treated in confidence. This means that your name will not be known to any more people than is necessary for the further processing of your case.
   
• Unsure about what to do? Unsure about your rights? The ombud for students is an independent support person who is tasked with providing students at the University of Bergen with legal assistance in respect of matters relating to their study situation.
