What students say about cultural-studies

Best aspect: amazing facilities, highly professional tutors and staffs, everyone seems to have good heads on their shoulders. High teaching standard and it's nice meeting people from other cultural settlements. Worst aspect: more of a recommendation, extracurricular activities to establish a better inculcation, especially for foreign students. For instance, city tour for foreign students, debates, sports etc, this will facilitate better friendship between students

What students say about cultural-studies

Aberystwyth is a great University for Computer Science. I was a career changer with no experience coding before coming here and the course taught me everything I needed to gain a placement with a AAA game studio. I wanted to write this review because I remember looking for Universitys when applying and wondering if Aber is good. I saw a review saying that the course didn't prepare them for the Industry at all. I strongly disagree. As someone who didn't come from an ICT background and didn't code at all before, I can tell you you will learn everything you need. Just go to your practicles! Truth is because it's Computer Science attendence is low, and students who don't do the un-assesed practices and coursework will have a hard time. If you want to go to a Uni though where lecturers care about you, take the time to talk to you and are invested in your success it's a great choice. Aberystwyth also has good ties to the industry and goes out of its' way to get students career ready. If you want to know where students end up just look up the Uni on linkedIn. Aberystwyth has gotten rewards for its' teaching repeatedly, and rightfully so. Yes, it's not a Russel Group University and prestige is not on the same level, but if you're engaged and want to learn the skills and have great lecturers and an active student life (because there is really nothing else to distract you from your studies in Aberystwyth) it's a great choice.

Great buildings and location with great transport links to major cities. Being taught by people who are the best in that field and being able to contribute to their research at an early time in your studies. The tutorial system with very few people in classes making learning much more interactive.

What students say about cultural-studies

What makes it a great place to study: Many study places, great teachers, good learning environment What can improve: 1. faith space especially for Muslim we have to pray 5 times a day, the prayer space is not in every building and walking from one building to another takes time. The wudhu space is also only available in Manchester Museum, so we have to use the public washroom to make wudhu 2. The study space, there are many plugs that are not working either in Main Library and Alan Gilbert Learning Commons (not sure about other places), so I hope it’ll get fixed 3. So many websites, I hope there’ll be one integrated space that student can check everything without having to jump from one website to another

What students say about cultural-studies

I love the city in general. The University's libraries are good. with proper facilities that I can use, such as discussion rooms, computers, printers, even 3D printer! Some buildings look so old but in positive ways, make them look classic and cultured. However, in my own experience, some classrooms are a little bit aged. i mean, like some chairs are feel old, they are sometimes kind of wobbly, and some of them do not have enough leg room. Main library can be crowded when exam days come, but I think that is something that can not be avoided. i think it is good to add some space for classrooms or some like study hubs.

What students say about cultural-studies

It’s a nice university in a nice area very convenient. There’s everything around. But can be improved by having more community because it lacks the aspects of like a community getting together having events just to talk not for like education or like stuff just like work you know like be friendly. Have fun. like how other universities of societies like this one society are limited like all universities of society for like everyone a culture and everything and just need something for the younger students to have that university life. Even though it’s a mature university. But it has so much Support and everything that you would need to study so that something is really great about it like there’s so many workshops but more fun things would be nice

The best thing is to easily access to necessary services, such as wellbeing services. I feel support is around me, significantly helping me to get familiar with new life and studying experience. However, I find it quite inconvenient for me to walk from my accommodation to St Luke's campus when having a slipped disc. I hope there will be an array of student accommodation near this campus in the future.

What students say about cultural-studies

Student safety and community feel is very strong. Lots of history surrounding the university and the town is beautiful. To improve I would have better transport for student to move between town and the nearest cities (like Edinburgh), better nightlife for the students and more accomodation.

What students say about cultural-studies

I love all the student deals. However, I feel like many of the student activity processes could be streamlined as it seems so overwhelming as a foreigner/first-year. Like, having to book a ticket, but then still waiting in line or an event being overbooked via ticketing that people are dissuaded to come. Then, when the event takes place, the ticket holders don’t even come.

Really great university. LSE has such a vibrant international atmosphere, and it’s location in the center of London gives you so many options! Something that stands out about LSE are the incredible opportunities given to students to attend all sorts of conferences and events that are so useful in your growth as an academic and professional. The community at LSE is so unique, it is so diverse and supportive. I recommend LSE very highly to anyone considering.

Cultural studies degree

Cultural studies is a great option for students looking to learn more about society and the historical concepts that underpin our modern world. You’ll consider things such as class, gender, age, race, religion, identity, representation and more. These Western cultural concepts will be juxtaposed with the work of non-Western academics to explore different cultures and histories. Many students go on to study cultural studies or a related subject such as comparative literature or gender studies at the postgraduate level. As a graduate, you might pursue a career in media, journalism, education, politics or in the charity section – a huge range of different options are available.
