What students say about ancient-history

I don't really engage with the SU or Student support so can't judge them effectively. Parts of Singleton campus look run down, but Bay campus is brand new and looks great. Swansea has a great student life and its location gives you loads to do, like explore the gower and spend time on the beach when the weather permits.

What students say about ancient-history

I've had the best experience, teachers they really care about your feeling about your emotions and you can see they do really care about the students, my 1st year was one of the best ever had and hopefully I will be able to continue and going into the 2nd year

What students say about ancient-history

The university has a wide range of buildings and very good resources in the SU. However the gym is slightly small and could do with better facilities both in the gym and sports village. It has a good amount of green space on campus and areas to relax however sometimes opening hours could be better or the amount of food cafes / shops.
