A formative model for measuring customer satisfaction with a degree course

This paper proposes an index founded on objective expectations, with the aim of measuring the CS of a service such as "a university degree course" (DC) provided by the Italian universities. In fact the "quality of university teaching" has been tested for many years now submitting a questionnaire to the students attending the courses and present at the end of each course; the questionnaire is divided into four dimensions: particular organisation of the teaching, characteristics of the teaching, characteristics of the exercises, general organisation of the teaching within the overall degree course
