The course achieved the Guardian’s top possible score of 100, a total which is calculated using measures including course satisfaction, satisfaction with teaching, and student to staff ratio.
Durham University also successfully rose one place in the league table overall, going up to fourth place after having come fifth in the 2020 rankings. The University achieved a total score of 81.5 out of 100 in the main table.
