What students say about advertising

Limited amount of shops in Lincoln, which makes it get a bit stale quick, but is still a lovely city with plenty of things to do. Another downside is the fact it is in the middle of nowhere, you have to get trains or coaches if you want to go anywhere else. However, it does have everything you need as a student, with a good night out as well

De Montfort University in Leicester is considered a great place to study because it offers a supportive learning environment, innovative block teaching, strong career and placement support, modern facilities, and a diverse student community in an affordable and vibrant city. Students benefit from accessible lecturers, practical industry-focused courses, extensive societies and extracurricular opportunities, and good wellbeing services. However, it could improve by ensuring more consistent feedback quality, strengthening industry engagement even further, and enhancing small campus facilities and overall student support to make the experience even smoother for everyone.

What students say about advertising

Herts has one of the best courses in the UK for film. As an American international student, the cost to study here and get to do production instead of only studies as a degree is very worth it. Herts is well placed for film as well as its just a day trip from london and in the same county as majority of the UK's production studios. The teachers here are all well educated and from industry. They make opportunities common as you regularly recive emails about new filming projects. The University also has a program called Herts Propeller Music, which is a colab between the music and film students to create live, professional music videos for real artists. Propeller gets you to learn new equipment years in advance to some fellow students if you start in year 1. The university also provides housing for all year degrees and responds regularly to any issues in flats. The flats have everything a home would need and are easy to make a home in. There are also many societies, such as Drama Society, Musical Theatre Society, Film and Television Society, and Scriptwriting Society that are well placed for developing skills outside of class while also having a social group that supports and accepts you. In terms of things to improve, the University constantly asks for feedback which occasionally gets fixed. The students union can be known to put on great events, but they also struggle to assist societies in their events or daily meetings which have to be cleared with them first. The University also has on campus clubs, such as Seventy7, the Loft, and to be soon reopened the Elehouse bar. These can be great nights out, but caution is needed if you are a woman. There have been many events of harassment, including spiking, which the event security doesnt seem to care much about. Though many students prefer the Hatfield Tap which is a bar a short walk from College Lane which tends to be much safer and holds karaoke nights on Tuesdays. Overall the University of Hertfordshire is a perfect place to study film and provides many resources. The social life and people is a good ballence for anyone and the staff on campus are all very kind and welcoming. If youre thinking about studying at the University of Hertfordshire i would greatly recommend it. Hope you find the place you're looking for.

What students say about advertising

As a student at Derby, there’s genuinely a lot to like about the university. The facilities are really strong (4/5). The libraries are modern and well-equipped, there are plenty of study spaces, and the course-specific facilities – especially labs and specialist rooms – are well maintained. You can usually find somewhere comfortable to work, and the technology available for students is reliable. Student support is also one of the standout areas (4/5). Tutors are approachable and helpful, and there’s good academic support if you need help with assignments, writing, or managing workload. The wellbeing and careers services are useful too, especially when it comes to planning for placements or graduate jobs. Student life is probably the best part (5/5). There are lots of societies and events going on, and it’s easy to get involved and meet people. The atmosphere feels friendly and welcoming, and there’s a good balance between studying and social life. The location (3/5) is decent but not amazing. Derby is affordable and fairly convenient, but it’s quieter compared to bigger student cities. If you’re looking for a huge nightlife scene or lots of big-city attractions, it might feel a bit limited. Similarly, the campus look and feel (3/5) is good in places but not perfect. Some buildings are modern and impressive, while others feel a bit dated. It’s comfortable and functional, but parts of campus could benefit from refurbishment to make everything feel more consistent.

From my perspective of being a student at coventry university id like to say how good the physical location and quality of all the facilites are. the design, layout, and ease of access for botth the engineering building and the library are excillent, student life here is great too, i currently live in a rental-based accommodation with 4 people, and it works quite well. Personally I couldnt fault the university with anything as I believe it is perfectly equipped to fullfil all its students needs.

Would love to see more accessible signs, with directions that don't just lead to stairs. However all staff are very accommodating and want to work with you to find accessible rooms and activities. Engaging lessons and lots of support available

Studying at Birmingham City University in the Curzon building is great because of the modern facilities, comfortable study spaces, and central location, which makes everything convenient. It could be improved by adding more quiet study areas during busy times and better communication about timetable updates.

What students say about advertising

Northampton university is amazing when it comes to inclusiveness. I feel like I am being supported in the ways I need to be. This is complemented by how amazing the lecturers are and how they make every class fun and interesting. However there are several flaws. The lack of student study spaces that are quite and actually available is hard to come by there is also tbe issue of not having wifi that reaches all the classrooms. Most of the week I am out of wifi range so am unable to use the resources I need to study on campus.
