It been fantastic a fulfilling and definitely the right choice for me, Northumbria is the best choice for my course and has toaught me so much and given me the independence to learn for myself, my internship year was one of the best years of my life and i had the best support from northumbria

they organise industry to come in a talk to us as well as a placement year to help us gather experience

I like most that the vieriety or options on our course and the abillity to direct your own path with the guidence of the tutors, i least like the lack of communication when the timetable changes sometimes this causes me to miss important lectures

I dont have time along side my course but i am aware of how good our student union is

extreamly good, they are currently developing the library which was already brilliant and they have made sure that all resources are available to the fashion students, sometime university printers can be temperamental but when are they not !

Newcastle is brilliant beautiful and lively, though its is a very small you can always seem to find something to do, wheather that is going to the beach visisting the baltic or exploring the granger market something new always pops up!

there is a wide veriaty of societies at northumbria i recently have joined two socieetys in my final year of university and loving the social side and the recreational side!

i feel like its fantastic my tutor are always quick to respond to emails the is a brilliant dyslexia support as well as one on one time with the tutors at least once a week !

yes one that i would love to get involved in is copp a feel breast cancer charity i discovered it at fresher fair and love what they do

So far I have enjoyed my university experience. Sometimes it is stressful and I hate my life but really I am having the best time. I am sad I am in my final year as so far final year has been the best year for me. I will miss it.

There is a placement co ordinater for my course. This was helpful as he would email new placements every week. In addition to the library offers support with cv's and interviews. You can either make an appointment or go to a drop in session. Personally I have made two appointments with help on interviews and I ended up being successful at these interviews. Without the help of the appointment in the library I maybe would not have been successful as I learnt a lot and uses the appointment as a interview rehearsal. There are also many opportunities to get involved and volunteer with the students union where you can gain a lot of transferable skills.

I think the teaching on my course is very good as the tutors are really friendly and helpful and have taught me a lot. They also have been extra helpful and supportive in my final year. I can't really think of anything I don't like about the teaching.

I love the students union it has helped me so much. It's helped me get a job, make friends and enhanced my university experience. The students union offers so much for students I think it's great. However in my first year I didn't get involved in it as I wasn't clear on what it did and what is was. I wish I could turn back time and get involved with the students union from first year as I would have enjoyed my first year a lot more if I knew about what it offered.

I love it

The sports and gym facilities are really good. Also the facilities in the library have improved as there are a lot more computers and printers. The design building where I spend most of my time have amazing facilities as there's loads of good industrial sewing machines, irons, printers, Mac computers and lots of big design studios to work in. I choose northumbria as when I was in college I had a look at the university on an open day and compared to other universities the fashion design facilities where by far the best in the region.

Newcastle is such a fun and safe city. I find it really friendly and welcoming. The night life is amazing and cheap. I've never had any issues walking home late or being out with friends late. The shopping is also good. I just find the public transport bad in newcastle. Also I find that newcastle isn't a very busy city however I still think it's great.

Really good there is a variety of clubs and society's to join. I have been involved with two different societies.

I have never had any personal counselling however I am aware of how to get help if I did need it as there a helpline number. This is run and apart of the students union though. Also the tutors have been the most helpful in my final year which I am currently in. I feel like they really want me to get a good degree and learn a lot this year compared to others. They take everyone a lot seriously about the degree and I am happy that I have a tutorial slots every week where I gain feedback.

Yes there lots of local charitable volunteering project. NSU Community allows students to get involved with volunteering with many things such as an animal shelter and night owl which is a night time help line. There are many other things but I can't remember right now.
