In May 2016, the DOU was held about the universities where IT specialists study or studied. Such surveys were also conducted, but this year we decided to make the assessment more complete and comprehensive.

How we thought

To build the rating, an assessment of readiness to recommend one's faculty or department as a place of study was chosen. We used this indicator because it depends less on the subjective life circumstances of the respondent (for example, nostalgia for youth or dissatisfaction with insufficient efforts made during education). In addition, since the recommendation is made “for the future”, the respondent can take into account not only his personal experience of studying, but also any information about the university received after graduation - this way we get a more objective assessment.

results

The lowest scores were (5.7) and (4.7).

The rest of the universities received average marks - no higher and no lower than the average level for the sample.

Interestingly, general universities are leading in the ranking (with the exception of KNURE). While specialized technical universities such as KPI, Lviv Polytechnic, ONPU, KhAI, KhPI, DonNTU received average marks, and VNTU and NAU even below average.

In addition to universities with high marks, there are several individual highly rated faculties in secondary universities.

This is the Faculty of Applied Mathematics (score 7.3), as well as several faculties: the Institute of Physics and Technology (PTI) - 7.4 points, the Faculty of Applied Mathematics (FPM) - 7.3 points, the Institute of Applied Systems Analysis (IPSA) - 7.0 points.

KPI, being the largest university for IT education (a quarter of the respondents study or studied at this university), received average marks. The main reason is the spread in the assessments of different faculties. In contrast to the above-mentioned stronger faculties (PTI, FPM, IPSA), the study also analyzed FIVT, TEF and FEL, which received average marks ().

To view data for all universities, use the widget below or a table with all the data. The complete dataset can be downloaded from GitHub.

in green values ​​above the average for the entire sample are highlighted, orange below the average for the entire sample. The values ​​in cells without filling do not differ from the average for the sample (90% significance level).

Cells with numbers show the average score on a scale from 1 to 10, with % - the share of all respondents of a particular university / faculty.

General assessment: willingness to recommend the department / faculty The prestige of the faculty Organization of the educational process, the presence of bureaucracy, informing students Orientation to the interests of students, willingness to help in difficult situations Learning is hard Learning is interesting Knowledge is useful for working in IT Knowledge is relevant Database C++ C Java C# JavaScript PHP QA Python Objective-C ruby Good explanations, clear presentation Practical experience with the material Attitude towards cheating/plagiarism (10 - very strict) Technical condition of the premises Technological opportunities for learning Access to educational materials Group / flow: level of knowledge, motivation Alumni Community: Helping the University, Shared Values Useful connections for professional activities Involvement and support of students in research activities Financial efficiency (raising and distributing funds) Price quality Faced with bribes personally IT specialists acted as guest lecturers Help with technical support Assistance in organizing training courses Assistance in organizing other training events Assistance in organizing other non-educational events Involvement of IT specialists in teaching Fairly active cooperation with IT companies in the field of employment At least one useful internship / practice was completed during the training Would not change the place of study

Ukrainian IT education: you can write off and give bribes, but it is prestigious

Estimates of various learning parameters range from 5 to 6 on a 10-point scale, rarely exceeding 6 points. The prestige of the faculty was rated as highly as possible - 6.5 on average for all universities.

Respondents report a rather loyal attitude towards cheating and plagiarism - this item received a score of 5.0 out of 10 (where 10 means "it is very difficult to copy or hand over someone else's work").

The level of corruption is also quite high: as we have already seen, 39% of respondents personally encountered cases of bribery.

Top A/O challenges for IT: weak alumni community, outdated knowledge and financial inefficiency

It is these parameters of the work of universities that were rated the lowest.

• community of graduates (assistance to the university, the presence of "common values") - 4.0;
• the relevance of the knowledge provided for working in IT - 4.1;
• financial efficiency of the university (optimality of attracting and distributing resources) - 4.2.

The irrelevance of knowledge is also reflected in the assessments of the work of teachers. If the clarity of explanations and the presentation of the material are rated at an average of 6.1, then the practical experience of application and the ability to explain how to apply knowledge in practice are rated worse - at 5.2.

Of the technologies listed in the questionnaire, databases are most often taught in universities (81% of respondents studied), C ++ (74%) and C (60%). Java was studied at the university by 44% of respondents, JavaScript - by 30%, QA - by 15%.

Glimmer of hope: cooperation between universities and IT companies

Despite the low assessments of the relevance and usefulness of knowledge, cooperation between universities and IT companies gives hope for the best, in particular, attracting IT specialists to teaching and joint events in order to employ students.

37% of respondents noted that their faculty attracted practitioners from the IT field to teach - however, 30% believe that this should have been done more often.

In addition to attracting IT specialists to teaching, faculties cooperate with IT companies in other ways: 38% of respondents noted that IT specialists acted as guest lecturers at their faculties, 29% - that IT companies helped faculties with technical support.

32% of respondents believe that their university is quite actively cooperating with IT companies in the field of employment.

You can see the details of this data on cooperation with IT companies by universities.

Detailed analysis of individual universities

NaUKMA

In the survey, the university is mainly represented by the Faculty of Informatics.

Almost all NaUKMA ratings turned out to be higher than the average for the sample: image, work of administration and teachers, usefulness and relevance of knowledge (including the list of technologies studied), technical support, community of students and graduates, the opportunity to engage in scientific activities, financial efficiency, cooperation with IT companies and employment assistance.

NaUKMA recorded the lowest level of corruption - none of the respondents personally encountered bribes.

57% of the surveyed graduates and students of NaUKMA said they would not change their place of study if they could choose again (vs 36% in the total sample).

KNU them. Shevchenko

In the survey, KNU is represented mainly by two faculties: the Faculty of Cybernetics and the Faculty of Radiophysics, Electronics and Computer Systems (former Radiophysics).

Faculty of Cybernetics rated as more prestigious, providing more relevant and useful knowledge for working in IT (including a wider list of technologies studied), more often attracting IT specialists to teaching.

On the other hand, students and graduates Faculty of Radiophysics, Electronics and Computer Systems they rate the work of the administration higher (orientation to the interests of students), consider the training program more complex and interesting, rate the involvement of students in research activities higher, and also talk about a stricter attitude towards cheating and plagiarism. The Faculty of Radiophysics, Electronics and Computer Systems also noted a rather low level of corruption - none of the respondents personally encountered bribes at the faculty, compared with 8% at the Faculty of Cybernetics and 39% in the whole sample.

KNURE

KNURE, together with KNU and CSU, ranks second in the ranking of universities with an assessment of readiness to recommend the university as a place of study 7.3 out of 10.

At the same time, on Faculty of Computer Engineering and Control a higher level of student involvement in research work - but also a higher level of corruption, 66% of respondents personally experienced bribes (compared to 41% in the Faculty of Computer Science and 39% in the sample as a whole).

ChGU im. Petra Mogila

CSU, together with KNU and KNURE, ranks second in the ranking of universities with an assessment of readiness to recommend the university as a place of study 7.2 out of 10.

In the survey, CSU is almost completely represented by the Faculty of Computer Science.

This faculty scores above average on most indicators, including cooperation with IT companies, employment assistance and the relevance of knowledge.

In particular, the level of studying various technologies at the Faculty of Computer Science of ChSU is one of the highest among all universities and faculties, and the level of corruption at the faculty (5%) is one of the lowest and second only to NaUKMA.

Sumy State University

In the survey, SSU is almost completely represented by the Faculty of Electronics and Information Technology.

In many respects, the university received above average marks, but the image of the university was rated average, and the complexity of education was below average. At the same time, the relevance of knowledge is rated above average, possibly due to the involvement of IT specialists in teaching and cooperation with IT companies in the field of employment.

The work of the administration, the clarity of the presentation of the material by teachers, and technical support were well appreciated. A fairly high level of student involvement in scientific activities. The university also received high financial performance scores, with a relatively low level of corruption (19% personally experienced bribes compared to 39% in the sample as a whole).

LNU them. Franco

In the survey, LNU is represented mainly by the Faculty of Applied Mathematics and Informatics.

The Faculty of Applied Mathematics and Informatics has a high level of prestige and complexity of education, the faculty more often attracts IT specialists to teach (for the university as a whole, these marks are average). Otherwise, the assessments of both the university and the faculty differ little from the average for the sample.

The level of corruption in the university is below average: 29% have personally encountered bribes (vs. 39% in the sample as a whole).

DNU them. Potter

The university as a whole received average marks, however, the Faculty of Applied Mathematics (about half of the respondents from DNU) received high marks for willingness to recommend it as a place of study (7.3 out of 10).

According to most indicators, the faculty is rated medium, so the high level of willingness to recommend is apparently due to the prestige of the faculty and the complexity of education.

At the same time, the technical support and financial efficiency of both the faculty and the university as a whole are rated below average.

Lviv Polytechnic

University grades are average. The work of the administration, namely the orientation towards the interests of students, is rated lower - this is mainly the "fault" of the Institute of Computer Technologies, Automation and Metrology.

The Institute of Computer Science and Information Technology received higher ratings - it is considered more prestigious, technological opportunities for learning, attracting IT specialists to teaching and cooperation with IT companies, including employment assistance, are appreciated higher. At the Institute of Computer Technologies, Automation and Metrology, all these items are rated at an average or below average level.

The level of corruption in these two faculties and in general in Lviv Polytechnic is above average (57% of respondents faced bribes personally vs 39% of the general sample).

ONPU

In the study ONPU is represented mainly by the Institute of Computer Systems.

Estimates of both the faculty and the university are mostly average. Everything related to technical support is rated below: the condition of the premises, technological opportunities for training, access to educational materials.

In addition, the financial performance of the university is rated below average, but the level of corruption is higher (54% of respondents from this university have personally encountered bribes vs. 39% on average in the sample).

At the same time, respondents from ONPU speak of quite active cooperation with IT companies in the field of employment.

NTUU "KPI"

As a whole, KPI grades as a university are average, but the situation may differ in different faculties. The strengths of KPI as a university as a whole are the prestige, the complexity of training and a strong community of students and alumni. Among the minuses are the work of the administration and teachers, technical support and financial efficiency. The level of corruption in the university is below average.

There are three faculties of KPI that are highly rated: the Institute of Physics and Technology (PTI), the Faculty of Applied Mathematics (FPM) and the Institute of Applied Systems Analysis (IPSA).

They were rated above average in terms of readiness to recommend, and in many ways these faculties are similar to each other: for example, they are rated as prestigious, difficult to learn, and providing knowledge and professional connections that are relevant and useful for working in IT. The level of corruption in these faculties is below average.

At the same time, respondents from FTI more often consider their studies interesting and give a higher rating to the work of the administration, namely, the orientation towards the interests of students.

If we talk about teachers, then respondents with IPSA give a higher rating to the quality of explanations and presentation of material, and respondents with FTI- practical experience and ability to explain the application of knowledge in practice. In addition, on FTI higher level of student involvement in research activities.

On the FTI and IPSA also stricter attitudes towards cheating and plagiarism, better access to educational materials, higher marks from the alumni community, these departments are more likely to involve IT specialists in teaching (for FPM scores of all these items do not differ from the average).

At the same time, estimates of employment assistance for all three faculties are almost the same and do not differ from the sample averages.

In addition to these three faculties, the study also singled out the Faculty of Informatics and Computer Engineering (FIVT), the Faculty of Thermal Power Engineering (TEF) and the Faculty of Electronics (FEL).

At FIFT good marks of image and complexity of training. The level of corruption at the FIHT is below average (27% vs 39% on average for the sample), the faculty is quite actively cooperating with IT companies in the field of employment. However, the relevance of knowledge is rated below average, as well as the work of the administration, the work of teachers, attitudes towards cheating and plagiarism, technical support and financial efficiency.

At TEF and FEL low marks for the image and organization of the educational process (including bureaucracy), as well as technical support. FEL students also rate below average the relevance and usefulness of the acquired knowledge for working in IT, they are less likely to involve IT specialists in teaching and cooperate less with IT companies in the field of employment. This is slightly better at TEF: the grades are average, and the list of technologies studied is wider - but on the other hand, the level of student involvement in scientific and technical activities is lower and the level of corruption is higher.

KhNU them. Karazin

Most university grades do not differ from the sample averages. The alumni community and the level of involvement in research activities are rated above average. Also, the university has a stricter attitude towards cheating and plagiarism.

NTU "KhPI"

Most university grades do not differ from the sample averages. The work of the administration, namely the orientation towards the interests of students, was rated above average. Also, according to respondents, both the university and one of its most popular IT faculties - CIT (Computer and Information Technology) - are actively cooperating with IT companies in the field of employment.

However, the respondents give a low rating to the complexity of studying at a university and the technical condition of its premises.

KhAI them. Zhukovsky

In many respects, the university is rated medium. At the same time, respondents from KhAI more often answer that it is interesting to study here - perhaps this is due to the high marks for the work of teachers, technical support (including access to educational materials) and the alumni community.

The financial efficiency of the university is rated above average - but the level of corruption in the university is also higher (55% personally encountered bribes vs 39% in the sample as a whole).

DonNTU

In the survey, the university is mainly represented by the Faculty of Computer Science and Technology.

Respondents from DonNTU assess the training program as difficult, and consider the acquired knowledge useful for working in IT. Also, the clarity of explanations and presentation of material by teachers was rated above average.

At the same time, according to the respondents, the university does not cooperate much with IT companies in the field of employment. The technical condition of the premises of the university, the involvement of students in research activities, as well as the financial efficiency of the university were assessed below average - along with this, the level of corruption in DonNTU is above average (54% personally encountered bribes vs 39% in the whole sample).

VNTU

In the survey, VNTU is represented mainly by the Faculty of Information Technology and Computer Engineering.

The university and the faculty are among the outsiders of the rating: the willingness to recommend them as a place of study is below average. Almost all evaluation parameters were rated below average: the image of the university, the organization of the educational process, the usefulness and relevance of knowledge, the complexity and interest of training, the work of teachers, technical condition and financial efficiency.

The level of corruption at VNTU is above average: 75% of respondents from this university personally encountered bribes upon admission or during their studies (vs 39% in the sample as a whole).

NAU

In the survey, NAU is represented mainly by the Institute of Computer Information Technologies. The university ranks last in terms of willingness to recommend.

As in the case of VNTU, most of the evaluation parameters are rated below average: the image of the university, the work of the administration, the complexity and interest of education, the relevance and usefulness of knowledge, the work of teachers, technical support, the community of students and graduates, and financial efficiency.
