Advanced Software Engineering MSc

University rating (5)

In my opinion, University of Leicester gives priority to their students before anything else. My curriculum seems career ready. Also, Leicester is one of the most diverse cities in UK. The crime rate is low here. Weather is not very harsh & the city environment is very student friendly.

Geography BA (Hons)

University rating (4)

Worst aspect- my accommodation in the 1st year was quite poor: communal toilets backed up, noise until 3/4 every night and fire alarm like 3 times a week in the middle of the night. Best aspect- very interesting course with engaging and helpful professors.

Population Health Sciences PhD, MD, MPhil - Allied Health Professions

University rating (5)

Students have so many opportunities like volunteering, societies, being part of the student's union. It could be improved by offering more hybrid working - this would be beneficial to people with disabilities/long-term health conditions.

Psychology and Vision Sciences PhD, Mphil

University rating (4)

I really like how easily accessible some of the student accommodations and the SU is to the rest of campus. I feel that the SU is very much the hub with a variety of different food places and facilities. I enjoy both the nightlife on campus, and how close university is to Leicester town centre. Improvements might include more seating spaces for study as I feel that the SU can often be quite crowded.

University rating (5)

I love the buildings and the library, I am really enjoying the way the lectures are delivered and the practicals in each lecture. The best part is talking with colleagues and reflecting together during the practicals and groups works.

Physiotherapy BSc (Hons)

University rating (4)

Love the course, staff are amazing and the content, facilities and people are fantastic. Honestly love every lesson. Student life is good, always something happening in halls or in the city. Student union are very supportive and there's lots of society's to get involved with. Campus is next to a gorgeous park, Victoria Park, and it doesn't take long to get to town via New Walk which is a really cute path.
