Genomsnitt: 3.91

- If coordinator is Malin Kjellberg: Never had time for any kind of conversation and no response to questions by emails either.» (Not at all)
- In the case of the automotive engineering program, the coordinator Malin could have done things better. The first thing i like to point out is that she fails to learn the construction of the automobile to the students. She i never at her office, answers e-mails randomly, does not do the work that is her responsability, does not actively seek up interresting joboppurtoneties/conferences/events etc for the students as many other coordinators do. The closest thing was to propagate electronic engineering jobs in korea. The course compisition i bad but OK in my point of view and should be changed. It feels as she is disconnected from the reality of the student and often does things that seem totally irrational to us.» (Not so satisfied)

- They will provide me with what i want as long as i know exactly what it is and how to get it. The result will differ depending on which person i talk to or if i just decide to do it myself without consulting anybody -profit for me. They where overall helpful but without the very professional and positive help from Johan Bankel i would be very unsatisfied with thair work. » (Neither/Nor)
- Though (bit of topic) the "new" student portal is SHIT!» (Very satisfied)
