What students say about architecture

Norwich is a great and wonderful place to be and study. It’s an amazing place to be as an artist or creative. I would however appreciate an infusion of diversity and diverse cultural educations throughout the institution.

What students say about architecture

Division into small campuses makes it a nice space, you are not stuck in one building the whole day but need to go outside if you need a workshop, food and etc. Unfortunately there is no a proper university canteen, small amount of choices and high prices , would be great to have a bigger university canteen where you can buy a proper lunch, instead of subway sandwich.

I love the university, my course is great and covers a variety of topics. The facilities on campus are amazing and I can book out the dance studios for free. The Roehampton students union is ok but the communication could be better between societies and also in general. I would love the RSu to host more events or at least support and promote other events at the union bar students can attend.

What students say about architecture

The best part of university experience is that I have support whenever I seek for help, my supervisors are the best. The worse experience is when I have to balance work, study and family time.. it adds pressure on me. But I am trying to balance it

I am thoroughly enjoying studying at Portsmouth University, although i have struggled throughout my time here with mental health problems all the staff in every department have been amazing and without their incredible support im not sure i would have reached my third year and be looking at graduating! i cant praise them higher, it is an incredible university that treats every student the same no matter who they are, where they are from or any disabilities they may have.

What students say about architecture

As a first year online student, the overall impression so far has not been good. Previously, I studied at the Open University and when comparing the two, I wish I had continued my study there. While distance learning is beneficial for myself and current circumstances, I had high hopes that teaching and learning would remain at a high level, especially while studying at a Masters level. Sadly, this has not been the case. My first module was filled with contradicting information regarding how assessments would be carried out, deadlines, and word counts with guidance often saying one thing and tutors saying another. The second module which I am currently studying is based on data. I have limited knowledge on this subject and would have hoped for more in-depth teaching rather than one or two 10 minute micro-lectures each week, which mostly sum up a chapter from a book that we are required to read. Alongside this, guidance stated that answer keys would be released for quizzes undertaken as part of the assessment. This has not been the case, therefore, students have had zero feedback or opportunity to reflect on their learning. There is no opportunity for online student to feel like they 'belong' to the university with all Student Union clubs/events taking place on campus. The only interactions I've had with other students studying online has been via discussion forums and a group WhatsApp set up by the students. In future, it would be beneficial if module guidance could be reviewed more often, therefore limiting the contradicting information that confuses students. It would also be extremely helpful to have 'live' lectures where students can actively participate and ask questions, rather than pre-recorded micro-lectures that last for 10 minutes. Alongside this, online opportunities could be provided to distance learning students such as online book clubs, monthly bingo games, online chat rooms, fun quiz nights, wellbeing check-in groups, etc.

Student support services and the staff are always helpful and welcoming. The sports culture is great. I think the general atmosphere and events at the student union could be improved. The cafes are nice places to study and socialise and the food is delicious.

What students say about architecture

I have access to pretty much anything I need in terms of equipment or facilities on campus. The campus itself is quite far for me but that's just unlucky, my main problems with the location can't be fixed by the university itself. It would be nice if there were cafes, stores or restaurants closer to the campus as the stores within campus are quite overpriced. There are technically two train lines you're able to take to get there but I haven't known anyone to ever take Jubilee probably due to the longer travel time and walk from station to campus. And having one line as an option to get to the campus can feel a little stressful sometimes.

What students say about architecture

The best parts are definitely the location as it's easy to get to from the train station with the campus looking very professional when you arrive. At the start of the year, I had student counselling, and it was amazing. The support was fantastic, and although the wait times were fairly long, it was definitely worth it. Excusing the IT support, the facilities that are provided are above standard, clean and perfect for ease of use. IT systems and the Student Union is barely noticeable. Whenever lecturers need to access something, they have to fix the IT system themselves because IT refuses to do any work, or only knows how to make a keyboard work. Thing that we need to actually complete our work are not installed on the PCs even after the lecturer has asked them to be added. It's a recurring pattern that has been happening since the first year, and it seems like it won't be stopping anytime soon.

Studying about Architecture

An architecture degree can take anywhere between three and seven years to complete. Architects are responsible for designing structures used by people and so there is a high level of safety and reliability that needs to be upheld. Students typically complete five years of study plus two years of work experience before taking final exams. Students studying an architecture degree need to be both creative and logical as they will be developing design skills combined with elements of mathematics and engineering. Graduates either end up working for themselves or as part of larger companies. There is flexibility to move into different areas like spatial design, set design and conservation and environmental work.
