Staffordshire Universities celebrate being named among best in the UK

Keele won the coveted No.1 spot in the “Best UK University” category in this year’s awards, highlighting its commitment to providing an outstanding student experience.
The Student Crowd Awards are based purely on verified student feedback with nearly 16,000 reviews being used to decide the winners of all 11 award categories.
The reviews used in the assessment were posted between June 2020 and May 2022, highlighting not only the outstanding student experience on offer at Keele in general, but the extra support that students received throughout the Covid pandemic.
Keele also performed strongly in the Value for Money and Accommodation categories of this year’s awards.
Staffordshire University made the Top 20 in four of the 11 categories in the 2022 Awards. In addition to 4th in the best universities category, it was 9th place for Job Prospects and performed highly for Course Content and Teaching Quality.
Both universities appearing in this year’s overall Top 5, shows that students who choose to study in Staffordshire rate their experience highly.
