It's been hard work, but enjoyable. There is so much support offered and many things to do alongside your degree. Like, clubs, jobs, societies, making new friends.

The facilities are excellent - there is a brand new 24/7 hours library with many resources, informative student support services, and great on campus restaurants which are affordable.

The support offered is excellent. They offer many services: financial, mental health, student information desk and dyslexia and disability support. The staff are very helpful, they will always keep their door open. Also, during the 1st year, there is support and advice from older students. (PAL).

The Student Union is great, it offers a wide range of activities, like, sports, societies and events.

There's a lovely range of: shops, clubs, bars, leisure activities (cinema, bowling), restaurants and affordable student living.

Enjoyable and friendly to attend, with theme nights.

What I like most about my course is: the practical hands on experience along with theory. Such as lab practicals where we use actual scientific methods to analyse evidence with the use of the crime scene room. One issue I have is the feedback, it's a bit of a long wait to get back.
