and the Ministry <strong>of</strong> Education and Culture <strong>for</strong><br />

collecting <strong>student</strong> feedback. It is used to collect updo-date<br />

<strong>student</strong> feedback in assessing education, in<br />

comparing universities <strong>of</strong> applied sciences and field.<br />

developing the education and practical training <strong>of</strong><br />

different fields <strong>of</strong> study and study programmes, as<br />
