Key Information Set

 

From September 2012 universities and colleges will publish standardised information for all their undergraduate courses in the form of a Key Information Set (KIS). The KIS data is designed to meet the needs of prospective students and allow for informed decision making when choosing a university course.

Information including the student satisfaction survey, detailed course information, future employment prospects including salary data, accommodation costs, tuition-fees and students union feedback will all be included in the Key Information Sets (KISs).
