Very trained Professionals and teachers. Ambiance is really really nice and spectacular. Modules are designed amazingly. Food should be available till night (Cafe closes early). Students are less engaged with each other (May be due to international biases).

Love the ability to use all the facilities whenever I wish to use them and being trained on things for my course has been so cool! The parking is a pain- I can’t park on the uni until 10- but my lecturers start at 9 so it doesn’t work. I then have to park elsewhere unless I wanted to pay a fine (which I have already had to do because I didn’t have a permit). If I could park from 8 this would be a great help pls thank you

The support Brighton Uni has given me so much support with this course and made it very clear who to contact if any issues arise. I also know from friends how incredibly supportive and sympathetic the uni has been when they have experienced personal issues. This is my second Uni I have studied at, and Brighton is far better with the support it gives its students compared to the first one.

I have not had any worse experience at UWE rather, it has been a fantastic journey so far since i started my MSC program in January. The environment is conducive for studying and there are up to date facilities to use. I believe there will be room for improvement in some places but i am not sure yet as i just started my program in January and still exploring but so far so good, it has been a fantastic journey and i look forward to many more memories at the Uni...

What students say about art-and-design

My favorite thing about Rave is how industry focused we are. Translating our work into the real world is discussed very often. We get talks from guests who have tons of insight and our tutors are also knowledgeable. In terms of improvement, Rave is lacking in the student life area. There are not many active societies and it can be difficult to meet people or create student lead events.

The best aspects of the University of Southampton is the great opportunities, e.g. societies and guest talks. I love going sailing on the Solent every other week and frequently running around the beautiful common. Similarly, new guest come to talk about their roles and how to get into their roles which is very beneficial for career development. There are no bad aspects that I have experienced so far.

Overall the uni experience has been great so far however, support lacks at times as they sometimes focus more on grades than mental health. The campus is beautiful and it is a useful place to get work done as there are many seating areas as well as high quality wifi.

a lovey campus and area for people not big on huge city universities, however the course has now been axed, meaning my year will miss out on key features due to no new year of students arriving next year

What students say about art-and-design

It's really great having a community with artistic people. Even though, the tutors encourage us to work with other courses, I just wish that cross-curricular work was more facilitated. I would like to have more events where students, from different major, could get to know each other, share experiences and talk about their projects.
