It is a really helpful university in terms of education. The weather is not good as like the other parts of the UK.

The best: Open access agreements for publications. The worst: more support available for the British students as like all the Uk universities.

Facilities are good. There should be more discounts for short-stay

The best aspect of my uni experience is the location. You can see both the mountains and the sea from the campus. You can walk to the sea or the Menai straits, or it's only a 15 minute drive to some beautiful beaches. The mountains are only a 10-20 minute drive away, with some epic mountain ranges, such as the Glyderau and Carneddau. The only negative would be that everything is on a hill!

The best part is the hands-on experience. We participate in labs for multiple modules, sometimes as the researcher and sometimes as participants. We get the opportunities to partake in real-life research or be lab assistants for PhD students. We also get hands-on experience leading groups in an outdoor environment - walking, climbing, coasteering, and watersports. The only negative would be I'd want even more outdoorsy practicals!

I had my own studio which was nice and quiet. Security were always on site for any issues. A negative would be the big hill to get up to the site.
