What students say about criminology

The best aspects of my experience so far has been the lessons as they have been engaging anf interesting. Everything is cleaely explained and there is plenty of support if there were to be things I was unaware of. Another of the best aspects has been the people as everyome is welcoming and friendly. I've had a few issues with my room and the people who have fixed the issues have been friendly and communicated everything that was being done to sort the problems. The worst aspects of my uni experience has been the several issues i have jad with my accomodatiom as i have had several plumbing issues and experience regilar fire alarms outside of set test times.

What students say about criminology

I love my degree. The lecturers are fantastic, knowledgeable and supportive. I love my subject and the freedom this course gives me to explore it. The block learning structure makes assessments more manageable. The assessments are often really open ended, allowing for you to research and write about your interests. It's really helped me to realise exactly what career path I want to follow. Theyre always advertising internships and paid work opportunities in a variety of fields and they provide plenty of opportunities for CPD for free. They have lots of services such as the careers team and 121 library support which are fantastic. UOS isn't much of a party school- Ipswich has an awful nightlife. It's definitely a different experience to some of the bigger unis, but I've met some awesome people of all ages and backgrounds. I would recommend this course, definitely!

What students say about criminology

The University of Hertfordshire has great facilities, but there are quite a few unnecessary procedures that could be streamlined, such as booking appointments for even the smallest matters. My experience so far has been disappointing from an academic perspective. I was expecting better quality education, but instead, most of the lectures consist of simply reading from PowerPoint slides, and the practical sessions have been far from engaging. While I understand that self-study is important, not all students, especially international ones like myself, have prior industrial experience or expertise. It's crucial that the university recognizes this and provides clearer, more detailed information about the curriculum, how exams work, and what is expected in terms of assessments. Relying solely on self-study and putting too much responsibility on the students isn’t fair, especially when we're paying for a quality education.

What students say about criminology

As a UCP alumni and now studying elsewhere I can compare small and large institutions and a small university such as UCP has much to offer over larger universities. Having people know who you are outside of your course, having support from teaching and support services without complicated processes, learning over your set days allows you to plan around this time so other commitments can fit. The course material is aimed at what the industry is looking for with practical applications alongside theoretical study giving you options for employment or further study. The staff not only support but work to create independent study and research skills. I enjoyed the sites and its facilities for being compact and easy to get around.

I do love Colchester, the area where my university is located at, as it quite lovely and most of my necessities are easily availbla there. Apart from that I do like staff, they are always there to help and there various other people like the skills for success and the library staff, who are always there to help with things that I don't understand.
