The Higher Education Act (1992:1434)
The Higher Education Ordinance (1993: 221)
The Work Environment Act (1977:1160)
The Discrimination Act (2008:567)

Your rights and responsibilities

Swedish universities and the Swedish Higher Education Authority (UKÄ) have a shared responsibility for quality assurance in higher education. Most quality assurance efforts are to be conducted by the universities and all universities are required to have systematic quality assurance processes.
When students are taking part in or have finished a course they will be given an opportunity to describe their experience and express their opinions in a course evaluation. The universities are required to arrange course evaluations and summarise their results and they also have to inform students about these results and any measures that may be adopted because of them. Students can also influence their studies through representation in their university’s decision-making and planning bodies.
