On the way to profession, students realize that their needs of a learning environment are different in the university system. But then how students can unify their needs of studying with the guidelines of the institution? This means that students’ voice of how the university vision of teaching and learning development has to be established in the near future needs to be “up to date” has to be heard. This inquiry is one of the key points in today's Higher Education field.Students’ dream of a “perfect” learning environment in Higher Education will be the central point of this paper, in which it will show the detail of this vision, such as learning environment; learning support; learning/teaching qualities - what a university needs to provide in order to guarantee the promise of a “perfect” learning environment.
