Anthropology degrees in South East England

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.

Having come to this campus, the atmosphere and pure friendliness of the staff is unmatched. being a mature student, i had worries and doubts about fitting in and falling behind, however, the uni of Sussex has supported and welcomed me in every way possible. the facilities provided are unmatched, with a variety of places to help give the best uni experience and education. and the societies at this school are so versatile! the only potential critic i have is having a cheaper option for shopping on site, but that's not much in contrast to what i and many others have been given :)

The best aspects of my university experience have been the sense of community and the opportunities for personal and academic growth. My course is taught by passionate lecturers who make the subject feel relevant and engaging, and I’ve appreciated how approachable most staff are when I need help. There are also plenty of extracurricular activities and societies, which made it easy to meet people with similar interests. The campus facilities—like the library, study spaces, and wellbeing services—have also been a big part of what makes it a great place to study. In terms of what could be improved, there are a few key areas. Communication between departments could sometimes be clearer, especially around deadlines and timetable changes. At busy times of the year, access to study spaces can become limited, and more quiet areas or longer opening hours would make a difference. It would also help if there were more practical, hands-on learning opportunities such as placements, workshops, or industry links, as these really enhance understanding and employability. Overall, the university offers a supportive and stimulating environment, but with better organisation and more resources during peak periods, the student experience could be even stronger.

It's very chill , in central london and the subjects are very interesting and decolonial. The lecturers are very good at what they do. It is lacking in huge university events and festivals with most being arranged by societies very rarely.

I’m a mature student doing the BMus Music part-time at Goldsmiths. I’ve just come to the end of the full-time first year (which has taken me two years). Headline is I’d really recommend this course – it was definitely a good decision to apply. Over the first year I’ve done 5 year-long modules and coming to the end I reckon they have given me a really solid foundation as a musician in terms of my ability to play, write, analyse and think about music.

It is great as there are a lot of green zones, a lot of parks, etc. There are a lot of students and it’s easy to make friends. The bad part is that the amount of coursework doesn’t let me totally enjoy all of the amenities

it is a very green campus with lovely up to date libraries and accommodation. it is close to town and the train station makes it easy to go southampton for a night out. unfortunately not a great nightlife, SU is good but queue for hours to get in, and no clubs in the town.

My favourite thing is how the depth and breadth of what the Careers Service can do for you. I've gone to many events and love how hands on they are. They offer workshops, insight presentations and personalised 1-2-1 appointments which have made me feel more reassured when it comes to my prospects! I also love the location and the campus, it's so reassuring in a way, the campus is safe and relaxing to walk through and I love how green it is. I will say the town is pretty average, but London is really close and its a big perk to be able to go out there, as there's not loads to do in the Reading centre, but all your necessities can be found there. The student union is great, really fun. They put on lots of nights with various themes and it's a great place to go on Wednesday nights.
