Drama Studies degrees in All England

Teaching staff are approachable and mostly kind but can be a little dismissive with questions that may seem ‘easy-to-find-answers’ about. Campus has a big library with lots of availability and great for learning during off peak hours but can be very challenging during events/exams. Student service is also very reliable but often show you how to get help, but not necessarily a direct route (some cases). No ‘scouting’ of people who may be interested in sports without it feeling difficult on students. Clubs are available but no real friendly games/matches with people of all varying skill (Ziggurat is good but only 1 sport a week - if someone enjoyed football, they’d only be involved maybe once for that year). Course content can be extremely difficult to manage. Can always be told how to manage by teaching staff but never get told how to manage time. Lectures can be 2 hours (back-back) and that can be emotionally and mentally exhausting (mostly dealt with by the university but some courses still have 2 hour blocks)

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

The lectures in my course are very helpful and always get back to you when you have questions. We have good weeks timetabling where we have online lessons and in person and we start at a nice time as well which gives people time to travel. Our lectures give us PowerPoints which we can also look at when at home for more revision. The university is big and is a couple bus stops from train stations which is helpful as well. There is lots of places to get food and they have a wide variety of things.

Everyone I have met has been friendly and helpful. There are plenty of societies to join and the student union bar is great for a bit of socialisation on the side. I wish there were more green spaces to sit and quiet areas like the library dotted around. Parking is a bit hit and miss but there's plenty of buses.

I absolutely love training at The Royal Central School of Speech and Drama. There is no place like it. Every student is warm and welcoming as soon as you walk up those famous steps. You will not regret joining the community we have at RCSSD. Once you've completed your studies you will be at the forefront of the industry and employers will want to snap you up as soon as you leave. You will forever be respected and be one of the most highly skilled personnel in your new work space, as you would have learnt so much about your craft as well as grown as a person.

Studying at Birmingham City University in the Curzon building is great because of the modern facilities, comfortable study spaces, and central location, which makes everything convenient. It could be improved by adding more quiet study areas during busy times and better communication about timetable updates.
