So far everything is fine. The lecturers are really helpful and won't make you feel insecure about your knowledge. There is just some problems oh terms of timetable management, but for now everything seems great.

What students say about applied-economics

I love the campus and the atmosphere we have. its a beautiful place to study and i have enjoyed my time here. All the staff are wonderful, I have a brilliant supervisors and enjoy my course. I have learnt a lot whilst at Lancaster However, i find that the student union is broken, it does not uphold its own beliefs. The societies may work but the actual student union body is useless. it needs and overhall, and needs attention brought to the actions of the staff and how people follow their regulations.

The facilities that supports s the class activities are top notch as they help students gain practical experience of what they are taught theoretically. More so, the laboratory support is quite great.

The student report is great and really accessible for all different types of issues and problems you may need. Some of the buildings look quite dull, I would like if the lecture rooms had more windows.

What students say about applied-economics

I am pursuing a one-year master's course at Sheffield Hallam University. My academic background is in commerce; I completed a Bachelor of Commerce (B.Com). However, I have decided to transition my career into the IT industry. The IDP team assisted me in exploring various options, and I ultimately chose this program because it is specifically designed for non-computing students who aspire to build their careers in the field of computing. This course includes both theoretical classes and practical lab sessions, which are conducted one day a week. The combination of lectures and hands-on learning provides a balanced approach to understanding key computing concepts and applying them in real-world scenarios. The tutors are incredibly supportive and cooperative, always ready to clarify doubts and provide guidance. Best Experiences at Sheffield Hallam University: 1. Supportive Environment : The university offers excellent resources, such as access to advanced labs and a library with extensive digital and physical resources. 2. Practical Learning: The lab sessions are interactive and help reinforce theoretical knowledge. 3. Cultural Diversity: Interacting with students from different backgrounds has broadened my perspective. 4. Career Support: The career services team assists with CV preparation, interview techniques, and connecting with potential employers. Challenges/Worst Experiences: 1. Adapting to Computing Concepts: Coming from a commerce background, the initial weeks were challenging as I needed to familiarize myself with technical terms and concepts, also i think we need to do hard work in order to compete with existing students who already studied computing in previous studies 2. Weather: Adjusting to the cold and rainy climate in Sheffield was difficult initially. 3. Time Management: Balancing coursework and independent study requires good time management skills, especially with a one-year intensive program. Overall, the experience at Sheffield Hallam has been transformative, equipping me with the knowledge and skills to pursue a successful career in computing.

What students say about applied-economics

The placement of the campus is great with lots of food establishments both on campus and around, making it easier to study for longer at the library. It is also close to both elephant and castle and Southwark underground stations so the commute is simple. Most of the buildings are modern and have a spacious feel, although I would like to add that I was underwhelmed by the business school as it seems slightly outdated compared to the rest of the university facilities. The staff are great and I have had great teaching along with materials so far. I would have preferred lecture theatres for my lectures to encourage me to attend as I enjoyed this experience at the previous university I attended, and so this has given it a more “high school” feel rather than university which is disappointing.

What students say about applied-economics

Campus life is engaging and fun if you're active; lots of choices of sports and social clubs. 3sixty club in campus is also one of best student clubbing experience I've had in the UK. Library is chic and comfortable with sufficient study spaces and books / online resource. Course content is interesting and inspiring but coursework is indeed demanding (if you are a good and hardworking student). Tutoring hours is not quite enough and most of the time you are expected to guide yourself through module content and problem solving. Disabilities support is available and of easy access but they could be reluctant to provided further assistance to students suffering from severe conditions or sudden accidents, and this could impact your studies to a large degree. However, if you are a healthy student with normal social life, it is not that difficult to graduate with a 2:1 or 1st with a bit of hard work whilst enjoying uni life.

What students say about applied-economics

As an international student, I struggled to find a teaching course that would allow me to study online while working a full time job. The University of Buckingham has afforded me the opportunity to study a high quality and in depth course while working full time. Their kindness and support during this process has been outstanding and has made all the difference for me. I cannot recommend them enough.

Tutors are lovely but the only thing that could be improved is the support for the English and the rest of the students who are not from Scotland. It's took me 3 years to get help for my dyslexia and that is because I have to pay for it.
