AllWell-questionnaire
This years AllWell-questionnaire has been sent to all the 2nd year bachelor and 1st year master students via aalto-mail. The university has become aware of the importance of students’ wellbeing and wants to improve it. Every answer is really valuable as it shows if there has been improvement in one year and that this is still a really current issue. Last year only 25% of the ARTS student answered, so let’s do it better this time! The questionnaire is open until the 16th of February. |
