Teaching Excellence at Coventry
We know the difference good teaching can make to your time at university. A great experience can make you happier, help you to learn more and possibly give you that edge when it comes to getting a job.
Which is why we're proud of our teaching achievements, including being awarded Gold in the Teaching and Excellence Framework (the government's first major assessment of teaching quality). We’ve again been awarded 5 stars for our teaching excellence (QS stars 2018).
Why not learn more about our academics, tutors, support staff and the approach we take to teaching?
Our academics aren't just great teachers... they're experts in their field as well. And we've made them prove it in a Mastermind-style challenge.
In each video, one of our staff will be put in the hot seat and grilled on a series of questions about their career and life by a hard-hitting journalist – their own student! Do they have what it takes to score top marks?
More about our academics
We've received a number of awards and accolades celebrating the quality of our student experience and teaching and learning.
We're ranked the UK's 13th best in the Guardian University Guide 2019 and for Teaching Quality (The Times and Sunday Times Good University Guide 2018).
