What students say about botany

I find the amount of support from academic to international and student representative support so immense and it made coping and adjusting to the new environment very easy. The uniskills and library services here is top notch and staff here are very helpful and give guidance when needed. One thing that can be improved is creating more part time job opportunities for students especially international students.

What students say about botany

The course curriculum is designed well to lay the foundations of various subjects in 1st sem, and we apply those learnings during our assignments and in the 2nd sem. It is more practical learning with hands-on approach on group projects and industry collaborations in the 2nd sem. The staffs are brilliant and incredibly supportive. There are lots of facilities and societies for extra curriculars. The university is situated near the city centre and so it is in a very good location. People in the town are very kind. Overall, I am having a great experience in the university.

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.

What students say about botany

Couldn’t be happier to have picked SRUC for veterinary nursing! It’s very practical based and really hands on which I love a lot. The lecturers are lovely and in our online (for now) lectures they make sure to try and keep us engaged and give us breaks as they know online learning can be a bit difficult and most of all they try to make it fun! If you’re looking to do veterinary nursing in Scotland I’d definitely recommend SRUC - you might be a bit hesitant at first since it’s out in the countryside and not a city but it’s definitely worth it for the practical learning than you receive on farm etc.

Mmu has strong academic reputation, excellent industry links like Siemens and employability . They have cutting edge facilities: state of the art labs are amazing! I love their commitment to sustainability; they are ranked as one of the best. The university could be improved : They need to improve in library services They need to have more rooms for studying They definitely would need more pc rooms! As they are always occupied when I need one, especially during exam times The library needs to get the books back in ; the books gave the library character and a reason for student to come to the library Other than this, Mmu is amazing!

The university’s library offers a wealth of resources and quiet study zones, and also collaborative workspaces. I value the 24/7 access during critical periods; everything I need to support my learning is available. loanable laptops and specialized software, it supports cutting-edge research. Ideal for self-driven learners valuing adaptability and hands-on support. The staff are knowledgeable and the librarians go above and beyond to assist with research, and academic advisors provide personalized guidance to help navigate projects.

The location is lovely despite it being quite out the way and a bit difficult to get to sometimes. All the staff have been great and really friendly, always helpful. The nightlife is great too with a huge variety of pubs and places to go.

I adore the campus and I am proud to say that I have studied at Aberdeen. The support services are excellent and lecturers are generally excellent. However, there is not a lot going on round about the uni and transport links are not great in Aberdeen. The students union leaves a lot to be desired.

Studying botany

Botany is a natural science degree subject which focuses on plant life and biology. Studying botany at uni will give you the skills and knowledge to understand plant life and horticulture, including learning about plants’ reproduction systems, metabolism, diseases, evolution and growth. You may also learn about how we can use plants to access valuable natural resources, like fuels and food, as well as doing modules on areas like an introduction to plant science, environmental science, scientific research and plant physiology. Unsurprisingly, many botany graduates go on to work in nature-focused jobs in fields like ecology, horticulture, food security, biofuel development, farming and environmental research.
