I love all the staff and academic support Swansea University offers to the students. I wanted to go for a placement after my second year, but my course did not offer this choice. However, my academic mentor helped me with this, allowed me to go for a year in the industry, and supported me. My worst experience was only the lack of study spaces in the library and the cold inside the building, but I got used to it now.

I like how practical it is and how the modules are structured because we have a connection between economics, philosophy, politics, history, psychology and geography. The lecturers are charming people and cover a lot in our lectures. I always get help when I need it from them. Also, we have many assignments, but we get many sources that we can use, and it is not very time-consuming. The worst is that my course did not offer any year in industry or placements.

Swansea is very cheap to live in, and there are many accommodation opportunities. It is close to Cardiff, and there are bus and train services direct to London. Some parts of the city are unsafe for women and girls to walk around, and there are not enough graduate employment opportunities.

I could meet other students and live on campus, so I saved time travelling to uni, and my attendance was perfect. The cost was higher, the facilities were very old, and often the kitchen oven or toasters did not even work.

Easy access to all the student stuff
