Evaluates aspects such as Good Teaching, Appropriate Assessment, Appropriate Workload and Generic Skills. 872 students of 1st and 3rd year undergraduate courses in Social Sciences and Science and Technology of three institutions of higher education attended. The results indicate that, in most courses, students feel that there is good teaching, the assessment is not the most appropriate, the workload is adequate and that provides the development of generic skills. A significant majority indicated of being satisfied with the quality of the courses.
