Studiebarometeret 2025
Overordnede resultater fra Studiebarometeret for universiteter og høyskolerSummary
Nearly 28,000 students responded to the thirteenth round of Studiebarometeret, conducted in autumn 2025. The survey covers a range of topics and is intended to provide an overview of students’ experiences of their study programmes.
The results are stable for most of the thematic areas included in Studiebarometeret. There are some changes for several questions, and at the index level the results are largely stable over time:
2018 | 2019 | 2020 | 2021 | 2022 | 2023 | 2024 | 2025 | |

Below, we summarise the results for overall satisfaction and the two themes showing the greatest change compared with previous years: the use of artificial intelligence (AI) and time spent on academic activities and paid work.
Three out of four students are satisfied with their study programme
Overall, most students are satisfied with their study programme, and there is a slight increase in the proportion who are satisfied students compared with 2024. There are variations by type of education, and as in previous years, teacher education programmes stand out as having the lowest average satisfaction. A positive development is that satisfaction among teacher education students has increased compared with 2024.
Time spent on academic work is decreasing, while time spent on paid work is increasing
The downward trend in total time spent on academic work among full-time students, which began in 2016, continues. The largest decline is in time spent on organised learning activities, and the level is the lowest ever recorded. The proportion of full-time students who work alongside their studies increased from 64 percent in 2024 to 68 percent in 2025. On average, students work 14,9 hours per week, up from 14,5 hours in 2024.
An increasing number of students use artificial intelligence in their studies, but a minority receive sufficient training
An increasing number of students use artificial intelligence (AI) in their academic work. This year’s results show that over 90 percent of students use AI. The proportion of respondents who reported frequent AI use increased from 25 percent in 2024 to 35 percent in 2025. Students use AI for a variety of purposes, and the largest increase since 2023 has been in the use of AI for quality assurance/editing of text, summarising, and as a discussion partner.
Nearly 60 percent of students believe that the guidelines for the use of AI in examinations and other forms of assessment are clear, while only 21 percent believe they receive sufficient training in the use of AI tools. Compared with 2024, there is a small increase in the proportion who believe they have received sufficient training — up from 17 percent in 2024.
