Bournemouth University has been an amazing experience for me, the Students' Union particularly has kept me so busy with clubs and societies eg. Nerve Media + Film society. There's always something going on! I've really enjoyed the practicality of my course, however, there have been times where i've felt our briefs were underdeveloped and unhelpful. It could be improved by more session for feedback, and adaptability in the units.

My course is fully in class, and i've very glad for this. It's really important to be in person and present physically. I have enjoyed that we have has mainly 2 assignments for each unit, as it relieves any pressure if one goes wrong. Lots of our assignments are group work and i think more could be done to make sure everyone pulls their weight - they recently upped the peer assessment mark which was good.

I enjoyed Dorchester house - it was a loud as any other student accommodation really. We has issues with broken lights and chairs which didn't always get fixed right away , but after a few goes someone visited. One thing i loved about BU was the rooms having double beds and ensuites.

It has some amazing facilities, especially for my course. I have had the chance to use new equipment which I never have been able to before as well as incredible TV studios - an amazing opportunity. Something that could be improved is awareness around services the uni provides, for example Lettings BU is a great facility where I found my home for next year, but there isn't much promotion of it. However, as a member of staff in the student union, I know that the social media team are working on promoting the student union services which is amazing. They do so many good things, it would be a shame if not everyone was aware of the opportunities available.

I have loved most of the things on my course and the facilities are amazing. Most of my lecturers are clear when teaching and answer emails quickly if I have queries. Most of them also offered one on one sessions for people who were struggling with their. I know that there are many successful alumni who have gone on to do incredible work in the film and TV industry so I have good faith in my career prospects. We do have to find our placements ourselves which is particularly difficult and daunting, although I am only in first year so I am sure things will be explained in more detail when necessary. Contact time with tutors doesn't happen often unless requested.

It is a nice place to live and I have all I need. I feel very fortunate to have my own bathroom and shower. It is located near lots of shops (a big ASDA and Lidl as well as a small Tesco and Co-op) which is very convenient. It is quite easy to get into the building without a key card but I feel safe in my flat. I don't have the best Wi-Fi connection which can be frustrating when calling loved ones. Reception is closed quite frequently which can be frustrating. The road we are on is quite loud, lots of cars revving, sometimes late into the night. Some downsides, but all in all a good halls to live in first year.
