Applied Sciences degrees in South East England

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.

I love this uni. It’s great! What I love so much about it is how close your course is. With each year consisting of very few students you really become a family whereas, other universities you rarely even speak to people on the same course as you! The student life is good but it can be a bit dull due to the lack of student based businesses in Chichester and Bognor meaning that for anything ‘trendy’ you are expected to travel to Portsmouth or the surrounding areas. What I don’t love is the accommodation. The uni has two main off-site accomodations in Chichester and both are not nice places to live. Whilst Fishbourne has better facilities, it is a cold, dire place to live. Stockbridge on the other hand has stained carpets, showers in which you press a button for 30s of water at a time, and tiny kitchens. I am particularly disappointed in the accommodation manager, when I reported a flatmate for aggressive and threatening behaviour and asked not to be identified, he promptly told the flatmate about what I had said. This issue desperately needs to be sorted out. Overall, particularly in the Conservatoire, the uni has been dealing with some big budget cuts causing certain courses to become essentially obsolete and just made to keep funding up. This is really disappointing as it means students are being admitted to a course that wont utilise their talents therefore not preparing them for the industry that they are desperate to enter.

i love the facilities at this uni, the library and the teaching is great. there are many places for all types of students ,quiet or not, to go and the nightlife in the city is prety decent. it is quite affordable compared to other universitys close by. the societies are fantastic aswell. the university could improve on certain teaching aspects in the first year to ease us into how very independant it all is

Overall UCFB, has been a plesasure to attend and a one in a life time opportunity. Staff are very helpful and prepared me more for the industry. I would highly reccomend UCFB, the connections and opporunity to meet with industy experts is second to none.
