What students say about animal-behaviour-studies

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

Everyone I have met has been friendly and helpful. There are plenty of societies to join and the student union bar is great for a bit of socialisation on the side. I wish there were more green spaces to sit and quiet areas like the library dotted around. Parking is a bit hit and miss but there's plenty of buses.

What students say about animal-behaviour-studies

WIFI is absolutely awful and there are many dead zones around campus. How can a top-level engineering university provide such poor internet connection, especially when all of our assignments are internet based and due online? I am constantly searching for places around campus with any useable connection and the VPN speeds when you're off campus are just unusable. It's the year 2024. How have we not figured this out yet? It's absolutely unaccusable. You have the money to build an entire new campus, but can't fix the internet at your main campus? Awful.

Great place to study due to its historical ties and the prestige of its education. However, it does leave a lot to be desired in other aspects of uni life, such as its students' union and its organisation.

Lots of resources online such as the online library as well as one in real life to visit at any time. The city itself hasn't got much going on which is probably the worst aspect but it's definitely still lively for a night out and has its perks as everything is so close together. Nearby is hundreds of amazing landscapes that make for a good hike; if you're an outdoor person this is the place for you. There's also hundreds of clubs that are very welcoming and easy to sign up for and of course the nightlife is full of pubs and a great club that you'll see everyone at from Wednesday to Saturday. There's so many courses that go from really specific to much broader so there's something for everyone and on my course at least there's a good mix of written work and course work.

It’s a great place to study because the academic environment is supportive, the teaching quality is strong, and there are plenty of opportunities to grow through projects, events, and collaboration with classmates. The campus community also makes it easy to feel included and motivated. It could be improved by streamlining administrative processes, offering clearer communication, and reducing unnecessary bureaucracy. More practical learning opportunities and better support during exam periods would also make a big difference.

The best aspects are the student union and the facilities available. I think it could be improved if we had more books generally available at the library without requiring click and collect, since right now the library feels like a study space but not a real library.

I love the well integrated teaching modules aligning with the current employability trend and measures in the organisational world. However. the faculty members can be improved with lecturers on the same array of discipline

What students say about animal-behaviour-studies

The campus is beautiful with lots of nature and scenery. There are lots of support options for students and opportunities to get involved in a few things on site. Unfortunately there is not a lot of nightlife/things to do in Gloucester. I am from a big city so Gloucester is boring in comparison. Gloucester is also quite a 'rough' area and it does not feel particularly safe at night. The campus location isn't ideal if you do not drive as shuttles don't run regularly enough if you have a job. They aren't the most convenient to bring shopping onto either.

What students say about animal-behaviour-studies

The best aspect of my university experience has been the supportive learning environment and access to diverse academic and professional opportunities. The teaching staff are approachable and knowledgeable, and the university provides useful resources that help students develop both academically and professionally. Studying in a diverse community has also helped me grow in confidence and cultural awareness. The most challenging aspect has been balancing academic responsibilities with part-time work and managing living costs, especially as an international student. While support services are available, clearer guidance on financial support, employability opportunities, and tailored support for international students would further improve the overall experience. Overall, the university is a great place to study, and enhanced support in these areas would make the student experience even stronger.

Studying animal behaviour studies

A degree in animal behaviour studies is a scientific study of how animals behave, both alone and when interacting with each other. You’ll learn about why animals behave in the ways they do by studying them in their natural habitats and in wildlife conservation environments. Topics you’re likely to cover during the degree include animal development and evolution, taxonomy (naming and classifying animals), habitats, morphology and physiology. You’re likely to learn animal theory in classroom settings, as well as gain practical experience in the field and in labs. Some courses also include placement opportunities, both in the UK and abroad. You’ll be able to develop scientific skills that are specific to animal behaviour studies, as well as transferable skills, such as data analysis, group work and presenting.
