Malmö University provides students who are participating in or have completed a course the opportunity to share their experiences and opinions about the course through a course evaluation organized by the institution. The university compiles the course evaluations and informs about the results and any decisions on measures prompted by the evaluations. The results must be made available to the students. (HF 1:14).

In a case when a course is no longer given, or the contents have been changed essentially, the student has the right to be examined twice during a one-year period, according to the course plan, which was valid at the time of registration.
