Best aspects - Good community feel Worst aspects - Strikes, feedback for assignments is always delayed, seminars run by under-experienced phd students

.

What I like most - Close to town What I like least - Not very close to Uni of Southampton campus or uni-owned halls.

WWW Industry level resources and facilities Nice balance of green space and city living Variety of things to do, great student life and music scene Collaboration encouraged Loads of societies EBI Greater proportion of funding for lessons and learning, not marketing Greater support and communication from uni at the top level More support for more varied ways of delivering learning - more interactive, less independent reading

More balanced blend would be preferred, more contact time. Lecturers are always easy to contact via email though

Likes: General cosiness, everything worked, maintainence easy to contact when needed Dislikes: Fire alarms going off at two in the morning, lack of natural light
