University rating
Tell us about your overall university experience so far.
The Glyndwr University deserves a 5 star rating, because it has good technology facilities and library resources, very helpful and kind teaching staff, good classroom environment, provides excellent academic assistance, give a remarkable guidance to international students. Studying forensic science three years in the university has given me so much life as well as educational experiences. Overall, it is an extraordinary University to study and obtain good results and feedbacks. I would recommend this university to a friend.
Facilities
How good are your university's facilities?
This university is filled out with lots of facilities and they have been very helpful for students to carry out their day to day lives without being stressed. Library and IT facilities have been modified further more and lots of additional academic skills workshops have been added. So that is a great helpful for first year students and final year students with their projects.
Student support
How good is the support offered by the uni? Think both academic (tutors/feedback) and personal (counselling, etc).
Students in this University are very supportive and regardless of time, place, race, they are always delightful to offer their kindness. I had lots of memories during my degree. My classmates in the forensic science '14 were very helpful for me as I was the only international student in the class. They advised me on how to do subject-related tasks and how normally day to day routines are happening in the university.
Students' union
What do you think of your Students' Union in terms of student representation and facilities?
Although I have not had much connections with them, they are well known to be very helpful and are/were providing excellent guidance for the students. They are clearly advising the students who have problems or uncomfortable situations occur during the studying.
Local life
Is your university in a good location in terms of distance to accommodation and local amenities?
I have been in this city for three years and this will be my fourth year. So far I am having a good and happy life. This city is really good for students, there are not much noises, very calm and quiet atmosphere in most of the times. There are nice and very kindly people live here. I am enjoying my life to the fullest in this city.
Societies and Sports
How would you rate the variety of societies/sports?
Unfortunately, I have not participated in clubs or any society. But I can say, it will be a good experience and life changing, if new students can engage in social activities from the start of the course. It will balance out their lives.
Lecturers and teaching quality
What do you like most and least about the way your course(s) are taught?
The University offers a wide range of courses within Chemistry, Engineering, Law, Business, IT, Health, Sports etc. So every type of student from every place flows into the university to study under one roof, engaging all the facilities. There are outstanding, compassionate, friendly and invaluable lecturers who have devoted their lives to the students. As a past student, I feel very proud and impassioned about that I was taught by this group of amazing lecturers in the University.
Career prospects
How does your uni make efforts to increase your employability (careers department, work placements, transferable skills)?
The University career centre gives so much advices and tips to students until they successfully pass the interview and get the job. They encourage students to stay in touch with them throughout studying in the university. They carry out workshops, lectures and academic trips to facilitate student's job hunting. They help not only during the course period, but also after the graduation. This is mainly an advantage to international students who are new to this country and want a part time job while studying in the University.
University halls
What do you think about the safety, condition, location and cost of your accommodation?
I haven't accommodate in the University during my course, but from my friends and news from other students, University has the great accommodation for students, where it is quiet and has a study-motivating environment. It is completely furnished according to every students' needs and necessities.
